Product Description:
Leslie Harris's return home after a decade of triumphs and disappointment resembles a nightmare more than the quiet stroll down memory lane she'd hoped for. A run-in with much-changed town bad girl Devon Watts, a woman she'd once secretly lusted after, rekindles small town jealousies and old heart aches--and reminds Leslie just why she left.

Two women whose lives turned out far differently than they'd once imagined discover that sometimes the shape of the future can only be found in the past--and love is strongest when dreams tremble.

- Not Up to Radclyffe's usual excellent standards!!
I simply love Radclyffe's writing, have done so for the past 3 years or so. This was the time I "discovered" Radclyffe's books.

It saddens me to say that I was for the first time disappointed. It simply wasn't up to her usual excellent standards.
It was a difficult read for the first twelve chapters, I almost put it down without finishing it, then I decided that I should go ahead and read on.

Radclyffe has a beautiful crisp, engaging narrative that usually grabs you from page one; I am sorry to say that this was not the case this time around. I own all of her books to date and I had expected this one to be another wonderful read as all her other books have been. I found myself doubting that she had actually written this book herself!! As I said not up to usual standards.

- Ever Been In Love With Your Best Friend?
I believe anyone could relate to this book to a certain degree. Anyone who survived puberty have had friendships that blurred the boundaries of convention.
Devon Weber has always felt like the outsider. This was especially true in her high school years. She knew she was different than everyone else...especially the girls who were her peers. As someone who has also struggled with sexuality in those formative years, I can relate.
Now, Devon is Dr. Weber...a successful biologist and a woman in charge of everything in her life. This is a huge contrast from the angry/surly teenager she once was. Her existence is thrown into turmoil when her old friend, Leslie Harris returns home.
Leslie is living the life of ambition and success. Just beyond thirty, Leslie has made partner at a reputable law firm in New York City as a corporate defense attorney. She has avoided returning to her roots in upstate ... Read More

- Less than Stellar
At one time Radclyffe was one of my favorite authors. Her earlier work was stellar, intriguing with well-developed characters, storylines that kept me interested in each page. Her more recent work, including this one, has fallen short. I bought this one thinking maybe it would be as good as her earlier work, but I find myself with another one to donate/give away. I hadn't bought one for quite a while, but took my chance based on loving her earlier work. I hope she can take some time to get back to her previous quality of work. This book consisted of an average story that wouldn't have won any awards if it had just been posted online, but would have been at least worth the price.

- Like reliving memories
I found this book a very good read. I couldn't put it down. The relationship between Leslie and Devon reminded me so much of my trouble times in high school and the love I lost there. The way you can feel the tension between the two characters everytime they meet is amazing. Beautifully written, I found myself in love with the characters.
