I am not sure the title of this book fully describes this book. Indeed there is an obsessive situation but it was never given a credible closure.
For me, this book was more of an older married woman finding herself on sampling the lesbian road. A struggle well described but somehow i found the characters fleeting and not anchored enough to the story.

This book was alright...although it kind of scared me..lol. It's about this woman named Lindse Stuart Brown. She is married, her kids are fully grown and owns a business with her husband. She meets Sarah Gilbert who is a lesbian and owns a Gay and Lesbian bookstore. When Sara lends her a copy of "Desert Hearts" Lindsey is finding herself to be curious about intimacy between women.

This book bored me to tears. It was slow and nothing exciting ever really happened. It was a long drawn out coming out story that would have been better for me in a blog.
