Description

Maren is the polished, unflappable face of Australian news, a woman whose life is meticulously scheduled and carefully controlled. But when her sixteen-year-old daughter, Orli, makes a choice that threatens to derail her future, Maren is forced to trade the comfort of the studio for the unpredictable open road. It is a journey that pushes her far outside her comfort zone and straight into the path of an unexpected connection. This later-in-life romance captures the messy, beautiful reality of starting over when you least expect it. As Maren navigates the complexities of motherhood and her own buried desires, she finds herself drawn to a world she never imagined she would inhabit. With the hum of motorcycle engines and the vast, shifting landscapes of the Australian countryside as a backdrop, the story explores the courage required to embrace change and the transformative power of a second chance at love. Readers have fallen for this heartfelt story, praising its authentic emotional depth and the seamless way it weaves personal growth with a slow-burn connection. Whether you are seeking a story about finding yourself again or a tender exploration of midlife romance, this book delivers a journey that is as gripping as it is deeply moving.

Loved it!

Loved it! Though I probably should say more than just that. Motorcycles are a passion of Cheyenne's, as she states in the authors note, and it really shows - there is a genuine love for them in the story, the catalyst that brings Maren and Jac together, via Orli, who initially has issues adapting to the move. And honestly, and aspect like that can really bring a story to life. It's a heartwarming story, one of healing for all the characters; and of forging stronger bonds as a family. It's about being true to yourself, coming out, and deciding what type of life you'd like. And of facing fears, even well founded one. Yes, experiences are part of what make us who we are, but there is also the opportunity to grow from them as well. Orli is as much a main character as Maren and Jac, even though she doesn't get any pov chapters, her part in the book pivotal, her struggles very real. There are some heavy moments, lots of sweet and spicy ones, and even with an undercurrent of uncertainty, not a lot of angst. This is the kind of book that is hard to put down, and once you do, it sticks with you afterwards, and with how good Cheyenne Blue's books have been for the ones I've read, I will certainly be reading more.

A good read

This was a nice read worth a snag for sure. Knew from the first couple chapters where/what plot points would be coming (most familiar with this type of sapphic fiction will), but it was still fun to watch the characters progress through them. The characters are what makes the story work they make you want to see their story.

This book will warm your heart!

I picked this book to try another author. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I had to make myself put it down at night or I would be up all night reading the book. The book was easy to read and followed a beautiful path. It showed how difficult it can be to come out, hard in the family, job and supposed friends. Thanks for this story!
