    Summary

    Her mother holds her face, a hand on each cheek. Her grasp is too firm. “Maddie. You do not want to marry a woman. You do not think women are pretty. You do not love women.” Madeline opens her mouth to protest but is silenced by the look in her mother’s eyes. “This is not a discussion, dear. This is something you are going to learn here and now. We will not have this conversation again. Do you understand?” Madeline nods, shakily. She doesn’t understand why, but she certainly knows what her mother means. And she knows to follow the rules.

     

    Character study of Madeline throughout her life. She and her mom are both painfully aware that she's a lesbian but they're trying to pretend that's not real--lots of stuff with her mother, lots of low self-esteem depressing sex with men. MadHel, but it's gonna take a sec and most of it will be repression and yearning.

    Summary

    Carla Connor is the formidable editor-in-chief of Revière, the UK’s most powerful fashion magazine and a global authority on style. She is uncompromising, and her opinion carries the greatest weight in the fashion world. Once she's in the room, everything else loses its meaning.

    Lisa Swain is a former Detective Sergeant who was forced to make a drastic change in her life four years ago. Having built a new career in journalism, she had never imagined she would one day find herself attending an interview at a fashion magazine. She doesn't understand the difference between fabrics, the brands, or how to match colours, and she has no idea who Carla Connor is.

    Yet somehow, their worlds collide - and neither of them could predict what would come of it.

    Summary

    Ruby can't decide if White would do exceptionally well in prison like she did— and she could admit it: lockup had a certain charm and, in the women's wing, was even fun at times, another exciting ecosystem for her to slink around in and control without working too hard— or if she'd collapse entirely beneath the weight of incarceration. Probably the latter. Even now, every inch of her speaks of a boring, anxious insomniac with paranoid delusions and a total inability to relax around others. Solitary confinement, Ruby's worst nightmare, would probably suit White just fine.

    Summary

    This. This was how it was always supposed to feel. This was what Grace was waiting for, what she never got, every time she kissed Ethan. Sparks that turned into fireworks, that lit up her entire being. Everything fading away except for the person in front of her. Time standing still, like they could make the whole world wait for them. Grace inched closer to Karen until there was no space left between them, kissing Karen back when she pulled away like she was gauging whether she just made a massive mistake. She felt Karen’s arms snake around her, and it was the first time she ever felt like she was exactly where she was meant to be. She couldn’t believe this was real. She couldn’t believe that Karen felt the same way.

    It may not have been Grace’s first kiss. But it was the first one that counted.

    In the middle of her Sophomore year of high school, a mysterious new girl walks into Grace's life and completely takes over her mind. Fifteen years later, Karen Walker crashes into her life, and the cycle starts all over again.
