See Me as I Am

Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

Love embraces what memory tries to destroy.

Sam’s been claimed by darkness.

Trying to escape a world that feels too big, too consuming, is there anything really worth exploring?

After years of mistreatment, staring down Alex’s loaded barrel might be enough of a reason for life to take a turn.

If you believe this story’s about peace and harmony, you’re sorely mistaken.

This is a story of redemption, respect and the infinite act of true love.

Author

L.M. Pirie is a sapphic romance author based in Scotland. She lives with her wife and cat (one that could easily win a fight against a Honey Badger) on the east coast.

Her stories are funny, full of queer wit, awkward glances, and the occasional romantic disaster.

When she's not writing, she’s usually trying out a new hobby that is guaranteed to make a mess, cost a fortune or last for a whole three days. Other than that, she'll normally be rewriting a single sentence for four hours straight, listening to some din through her headphones (usually to ignore the wife), or trying to convince you that staring out the window CAN be classed as "work."

Warning: her books may cause spontaneous laughter, mild mood swings, and an intense craving for Scottish culture.
