“We’re going to teach you a lesson, Willow. And then you’ll never look at another woman again.
I really enjoyed this book. I’m a big fan of romantic thrillers and this one had me on the edge of my seat!
Willow is heading home for her summer break. Back to her parent’s home, and the prospect of non-stop head-butting with her mother. She expected the friction. What she didn’t expect was the new nanny, Georgia and the instant attraction Willow has to her. After her mom walks in on Willow and Georgia in an intimate moment, Willow returns to Cambridge, only to find an unexpected friendship and connection to a former professor, Francesca “Frankie” Marten. Frankie, newly separated from her husband and coming to terms with her true self, lets herself experience what she’s been fantasizing about for a long time – the touch of another woman.
But, someone isn’t going to let it happen. Threatening notes and mysterious texts are putting Willow and Frankie on edge. When the threats become violent, will any of them make it out of this alive? Will Willow live to see Georgia again? Who is behind it all?
This was a great thriller! I loved how this author could make you hate the person responsible, but also feel sorry for them at the same time. I was totally shocked at one particular event but I won’t spoil it for anyone. I guess you’ll just have to read it and find out if you’re shocked too! Grab it now!

A new author to me and a lesbian romance which is also the only one I’ve ever read. I had heard lots about this author and book prior to its release and had been eagerly awaiting its release. If you think this book is going to be set in the bedroom you have been totally misled. Yes it’s a romance, but it’s a rom-com and a suspense all rolled into one very entertaining book.
Willow is a Cambridge student who’s returned to her eccentric family home after breaking up with her girlfriend. Let’s just say that things are strained between Willow and her mum, it was a beautiful thing to see that relationship unfold. I laughed at the craziness, embraced the vulnerability and maturity of Francesca and Miles.
I absolutely loved this book by Luna Lopez, and I would so love to have coffee with her, as I think she would be a scream…. The sarcastic humour through out the story, had me crying with laughter. This is a book that has it all, it draws you in right from the start, with romance,suspense, steamy sex scenes and a chilling bit of thriller all in one. I loved the characters especially Willows Mum Valerie…. now she needs a book of her own:)
This book does not go where you think it might, so it had me totally engaged. I thoroughly recommend it.
I’ve read this authors short story’s, but let me tell you this book is beyond fantastic. I love to see a new author grow, and wow, that she has. Luna has managed to write a story that captures you and brings each character to life. Willow breaks up from her girlfriend and decides to go home when uni ends for the summer, and it’s here we get to meet her family, and OMG, her mum cracks me right up. The story had me laughing, but also shocked me. I couldn’t put this book down and would highly recommend this book to anyone.
Another fabulous story from Luna Lopez. She surprises me every time with the twists and turns in her stories and this one is no different. This book has humour, sadness and grief and some very steamy bits. All the makings of an emotionally charged wonderful read. I highly recommend this book!
Wow!!! Brilliant!!!
I was hystericaly laughing reading the first few chapters, the humour just so funny……then came the twist…….and the atmosphere of the whole book completely changed!!!! Wow!! Talk about jaw dropping!!!!
Oh and Valerie……What an absolute treasure!!
And then another twist that I never, ever saw coming……..this has got to be one of the most unexpected emotional rollercoasters I have ever been on!!!!! I can’t recommend this book highly enough!! Fantastic!!!
