“I love my peaceful life of books, but the hospital has threatened to close the library and Dr. Summerhouse has met her match with me.” – Layka Silva

When two passionate, intelligent women with opposing priorities lead a project against a virus that is attacking the homeless population of DC, no one anticipates the scandal their romance will uncover.

Layka was sixteen when tragedy struck – taking her parents. Now, years later, she and her sister carry a secret the project may expose.

Dr. Aven Summerhouse has a busy life and one more duty on a public health project shouldn’t be a problem until Layka Silva shatters the walls she erected to protect her heart.

This love-at-first-sight romance turns slow-burn with a surprising twist and celebrates the love of two women fighting for the safety of a vulnerable community.
