Contemporary F-F romance. Forbidden love troupe.
Cassie hooks up with a sexy older woman at a bar and finds out the next morning it’s her best friend’s mother. They continue their hidden relationship as their attraction and feelings grow. The main problem:

The humor is fantastic and I find that the college age characters really felt like college kids, which was perfect. Overall, a fun adult romance novel!
