Introduction

A lighthearted, leisurely escape to Lake Chatuge where erupting secrets trail the ricocheting course of a neurodiverse romance.

Celebrity biographer Eli Sledge has jettisoned a neuro-incompatible marriage for all the wrong reasons, and along the way, conjured a determined enemy. Just as she believes her stars have aligned, her fresh start collapses in scandal. While rehabbing the old family farmhouse, she encounters a few similarly self-exiled women, some glaciered in beliefs still causing more damage than the mistakes that ignited them.

Follow revelations and adventures among women who never had the time, emotional space, or trust to invest in friends.
