Some nights change your life. Some nights save it. You were only trying to get home. When a stranger refuses to take no for an answer on a deserted Saturday night, every turn down another empty street feels like a mistake. Desperate for somewhere—anywhere—with people, you duck toward the glow of a neighborhood bar. You don’t realize until you’re almost at the door that it’s the city’s most popular lesbian bar. Or that the striking woman watching you from across the sidewalk has already figured out exactly what’s happening. Towering, tattooed, and intimidating in all the right ways, she’s the kind of woman people instinctively move aside for. Before you can ask for help, she steps in as if she’s known you for years, wrapping an arm around your shoulders and claiming you as her own. It’s enough to send your pursuer packing. But one rescued night turns into another... and then another excuse to see the mysterious woman who called herself your girlfriend without hesitation. What begins as a simple act of kindness becomes an undeniable pull between two people who couldn’t have met under stranger circumstances. As danger from the past refuses to stay buried and feelings grow impossible to ignore, you’ll have to decide whether one terrifying night was merely bad luck—or the moment fate quietly rewrote your future. Perfect for readers who love slow-burn sapphic romance, found family, protective heroines, and the intoxicating chemistry between a sunshine heroine and the impossibly confident woman who makes everyone else feel safe.
