Overview

Author Avery Brooks returns to the steamy city of New Orleans with a smart and sexy sapphic romance that asks, ""Can workplace rivals fall in love and find a happily ever after?"" Drea Cordeira likes to have fun. She has quite the reputation for it, having slept with most of the queer women of New Orleans. But behind the humor, charm, and sexy drawl, there's a lot more to Drea, and she's not too keen on sharing it. Organized, reliable Cassie Sullivan has learned to be resilient through a lifetime of loss. She longs for a stable, loving relationship and someone she can count on, not a one-night stand, and definitely not with her new coworker, Drea. In the office and under the hot lights of the dance floor, Drea and Cassie's competitive spirits collide, unearthing a sexy tension and healthy dose of witty banter. As their connection deepens, threatening the safety of the worlds they've carefully crafted, Drea and Cassie must both decide if the risk of revealing their true selves and taking a shot at a love greater than either of them could have imagined outweighs the pain of their pasts and the potential for rejection.

Author Information

Avery Brooks has a PhD in evolutionary biology and has spent much of her life studying dominance, climate change, social justice issues, and human rights atrocities. Her debut novel, Other Girls, was a 2020 GCLS Goldie finalist. She is also the editor of three anthologies featuring LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and AAPI poets writing on the themes of resistance and liberation. Quinn Riley (a.k.a. Jeremy Carlisle Parker) is an actor and singer working in New York City. She started her career as an opera singer (and has since transitioned to musical theater) and her training has afforded her a facility with many accents and foreign languages. Quinn has a profound love for storytelling and firmly believes that books can change lives. She is an out and proud queer woman and is deeply committed to amplifying queer voices whenever she can. When Quinn isn't in the booth, you can find her tie-dying t-shirts in her kitchen sink while listening to true crime podcasts and catching up on RuPaul's Drag Race.
