A woman closer to 50 than 40. A man devoted to his six foster kids. A summer vacation fling …

At 47, I thought I was content with my rigid and routine life.
Until I meet a handsome stranger on the beach while enjoying a long overdue summer vacation.
Roman and I agree to spend the week together with no strings attached.
We spend days and nights together, sharing engaging conversation, exploring the rugged coastline and each other.
Our connection is instant and gives me the confidence I need to step out of my comfort zone.
My behavior is so far removed from who I am in my daily life I don’t even recognize who I am.
And it feels exhilarating.
He makes me feel like a woman.
A desirable woman.
A whisper of a wish for more teases my mind when I leave him behind at the inn, but I shove it away to honor our no-strings agreement and focus on my new life.
Our worlds unexpectedly collide when I turn up on his doorstep in my new role as a social worker.
While my world is rocked on its axis, Roman wants to pick up where we left off, but …
What will he think of the woman I really am?

A steamy, low-angst, stand-alone over-40s contemporary romance novella featuring a cinnamon roll foster carer and a single widow who’s forgotten what it’s like to be a woman.
Author’s note: This novella was originally published as part of the Suddenly Forever charity anthology. It has been expanded by 30K words to make it a more complete and well-rounded stand-alone story.
