The Real Story

Nearly ten years ago, after the sudden death of her sister, Kate Bellam didn’t hesitate to become surrogate mom to her niece Megan. Her life has become a treadmill of work, motherhood and celibacy.

Her long perfected calm, necessary in a surgical nurse, is tested the moment she meets Megan’s new mentor. Sportswriter “Tommie” Tommelson sets off all the alarms, both good and bad. Out as a lesbian, brash in her seductive powers and with a reputation for breaking hearts, Tommie is obviously looking for nothing more than a fling.

Kate knows she is finally ready for so much more, but she’s seen too much of life to believe that Tommie can ever change.
Newcomer RJ Layer delivers a story of tumultuous passion in her debut romance.
