Product Description
The things a woman will do for love...and Lily had love, lots of it. But her partner Charlotte is dead. Their daughter Mimi keeps her sane - until Charlotte's family claims they have all the rights to Mimi, who is their blood kin, and no "real" relation to Lily. With what's left of her world balanced on a razor's edge, any choice to find safer ground seems reasonable. Even getting married. Married to her Bugle Boy-wearing, trust fund-spending gay neighbor, Ben. Married and relocated to rural Georgia where Ben's powerful family will make sure Lily gets custody of Mimi. Just one little trick involved: convincing Ben's parents their marriage is the real thing. It doesn't seem like keeping up appearances will be that hard. But the charade gets more difficult when a beautiful country veterinarian offers Lily a taste of what she's pretending she no longer craves... The outrageous perks and pitfalls of compulsory heterosexuality are humorously explored by the talented pen of Lambda Literary award-winner Julia Watts, known for her wit and wry observations about the quirks of Southern life.
