My second novel, BLUE YEAR: A Literary Lesbian Erotic novel, will be out June 1, 2026!
Pre-order here: https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Year-Lite...

Here's the blurb:

How many more birthdays until my body falls silent, a spring without birds?

When an unnamed lesbian wakes on another birthday, she knows she’s no longer young. But it's not too late to dance to the music of desire. She gives herself a year—a BLUE YEAR—of erotic adventure.

Body, mind, spirit. From the coming of spring to winter solstice, from the memory of first kisses to a vision of her last, her passion for women blazes. And behind it all, a mystical, universal love.

And some pre-release reviews:

“Not to be missed. An exquisitely, powerfully written book.”
—Mary Dearborn, biographer, auth ...more

“...as long as nothing happens between them, the memory is cursed with what hasn't happened.”

“Sophia shrieked and fainted on the ground – I screamed and instantly ran mad. We remained thus mutually deprived of our senses, some minutes, and on regaining them were deprived of them again. For an Hour and a Quarter did we continue in this unfortunate situation – Sophia fainting every moment and I running mad as often. At length a groan from the hapless Edward (who alone retained any share of life) restored us to ourselves.”
― Jane Austen, Love and Freindship

“dykes were put here to tip the scales! we have a very important job and i wouldn't trade it for the world. give me a choice between breeding, accelerated aging, living with an orangutan, and maid duty for life...or, autonomy, black boots, multiple orgasms, cats instead of kids, people who say what they mean, and nothing stopping me from doing whatever i wanna do...and guess which one i pick?”
