Lake Notes: A Sapphic Romance

When Harper moves to the quiet shores of Blackwood Lake, she expects nothing more than a peaceful summer of solitude to mend her weary heart.

This story celebrates the quiet magic of finding a home in another person, anchored by a romance that feels both grounded and deeply romantic. Perfect for readers who crave a heartwarming narrative where love always finds its way back, this novel is a cozy, life-affirming tribute to second chances.
