Where Lilies Wait
A Steamy Sapphic Novella of Passion, Secrets, and Second Chances
Amara Ndiaye is perfectly at home in her solitude, tending to the sprawling Virginia estate she’s come to love as her own. Life at the farmhouse is steady, predictable, and safe—until Adriana Ionescu arrives, shaking up her carefully ordered world with a gaze that sees too much and a presence that lingers too long.
Adriana is polished, confident, and sent to evaluate the estate’s guest properties, her jade-green eyes sharp and searching. At first, the contrast between them couldn’t be clearer: Amara is grounded, steady, and rooted in the land, while Adriana moves through life with precise, practiced control. Yet beneath Adriana’s composed exterior lies something unspoken—something that draws Amara in despite herself.
What begins as professional formality turns into late-night conversations, teasing glances, and a tension that hums like a live wire. The stillness of the farm is soon filled with stolen moments and heated whispers, their connection unraveling the walls each woman has spent years building. In the golden hush of a Virginia summer, between sunlit barn doors and a lily-covered pond, desire takes root—and neither of them can resist where it leads.
But passion alone isn’t enough. Adriana’s world is on the verge of collapse, her future threatened by forces beyond her control. And as their connection deepens, Amara must decide whether she’s willing to risk her heart on something fleeting—or fight for a love that could change everything.
Where Lilies Wait is a steamy sapphic romance novella filled with slow-burn tension, undeniable chemistry, and high-stakes emotion—perfect for fans of passionate love stories and second chances.
