Lindy Hall does not expect to want Aster Vance. Aster definitely does not expect to want her back.
At forty-nine and fifty-three, neither woman is looking for this kind of complication. But the attraction is immediate, inconvenient, and getting harder to ignore every time they’re in the same room.
Aster is sharp, confident, impossible not to notice.
Lindy is warm, capable, and far more tempting than Aster was prepared for.
They have every reason to keep their distance.
Instead, there are late-night phone calls. Porch wine. Lingering looks. Touches that stop feeling accidental.
And eventually, absolutely nothing accidental about it.
The problem is how they met.
They were both married to the same man.
Jeffrey Overton spent years making sure his two ex-wives never compared notes. Then a forged deed, a Smith Mountain Lake house, and more than a hundred thousand dollars in missing money finally put Lindy and Aster across the same table.
What begins as reluctant cooperation turns into something much harder to explain.
Because the more they uncover about Jeffrey, the more they realize he lied to both of them.
And the more time Lindy and Aster spend together, the less either one cares about the man who brought them there.
Taking down their ex might be satisfying.
But falling for each other could be the best thing he ever accidentally did for them.
Never Jeff is a spicy later-in-life sapphic romance with enemies-to-allies-to-lovers tension, two ex-wives of the same con man, slow-burn chemistry, explicit on-page heat, small-town Virginia, hard-earned trust, and a guaranteed happy ending.
