This is book #1 in the Chicago Series.
Eva Dash has her career on track. After earning her Ph. D in Literature, she became a professor at the same college she'd called home as a student. When she loses the only job she's ever wanted, she's forced to consider leaving the only home she's ever really known.
Ember Elliot, the reformed player, has finally committed herself to looking for the right woman while struggling to find herself in other ways. She's tired of being misunderstood by her family and hiding a very important part of herself from them. Being gay isn't her secret. Wanting to be more than just a manager at her family's restaurant is. And she's ready to take steps to get what she wants.
The two women meet when Ember does her best to keep Eva from being a notch in another woman's bedpost. They find each other at the time when both of them have lives and careers in flux. It starts with a scribbled warning on a napkin, continues with a tree house kiss and ends with a wall covered in chalkboard paint.
