Description

On a day that begins like any other, a violent earthquake strikes Los Angeles, plunging the region into chaos. Two strangers, trapped in a collapsed shopping mall, find each other amid the rubble and join forces to escape. Hampered by injury and darkness, they dig and claw their way through one crumbled store after another, emerging long after most have given up hope for survivors. The ordeal leaves both women shaken, but their shared triumph sets them on a life-changing course together, igniting a connection like neither has ever known. Anna Kaklis--whose perfectly planned life never included falling in love with another woman--is thrown for a loop, but she doesn't doubt her heart. Lily Stewart--abandoned too many times by people she trusted--won't let herself believe that Anna's love will endure. Without Warning is the story of their courageous journey through adversity, and their promise of steadfast love.… (more)

I loved (still love, but read much less) Xena Fanfic and yet before reading MacGregor's published books I totally missed out on her online stuff and therefore also seemed to have missed the story that this series was based on.

two women and threw them into the aftermath of an earthquake. Stuck together in the remnants of a mall. Anna, a married vice president of a BMW dealer and Lily, a lesbian, legal aid family lawyer. It only gets more interesting from there.

It's a fairly typical lesbian fiction romance. Well written, not too many surprises, very, very well written sex scenes as well.

It does seem like it's not quite done at the end of the story, even more than usual for a book in a series, but luckily when I finally found this series I didn't have to wait too much as there were already three of the books out.
