  Dar came out of the bedroom, tucking a pristine white heavyweight T-shirt into her worn jeans. “Ready?”

  “Yep.” Kerry held up the envelope. “I need to call Richard and thank him for agreeing to deliver this to the nursing home for me.”

  “He’s a good guy,” Dar agreed, picking up her leather jacket and slinging it over her shoulder. “He’s also agreed to help her out if she needs it. He’s got a criminal guy he works with, if it turns out that way.” She gestured to the door. “There’s a mailbox in town.

  We can drop it there.”

  Kerry picked up her own jacket and followed Dar out the door.

  The bike was already waiting for them, and she shrugged into her jacket as they walked over to it “Hey. I wanna drive.”

  Dar paused and eyed her.

  “C’mon, c’mon.” Kerry handed her the envelope. “It’s just a few miles, remember?”

  “Uh huh.” Dar held the bike steady while Kerry climbed on, then she settled herself behind her partner, her longer legs able to hold the machine up despite her perch. “Y’know, Ker…”

  “I know. I know.” Kerry hopped up onto the seat. “Humor me.”

  Dar chuckled.

  “Watch it, Dixiecup,” Kerry warned. “Or I’ll have them put tiny tires on this so I can reach.”

  Dar kissed the back of Kerry’s neck. “You’re so cute.” She handed her partner her helmet. “Here.”

  Kerry started the engine and waited for Dar to wind a long arm around her middle before she started off, heading for the road and turning onto it carefully. “Where’s the post box?” she asked, getting used to the difference in balance with both of them on the bike.

  Dar’s hand pointed, and she directed the bike toward it, pausing there long enough for her partner to drop in the envelope.

  “That’s that,” Kerry called behind her. “Let’s go have some fun!”

  She felt Dar’s other arm wrap firmly around her, and she gunned the throttle. “How fast does this go, anyway?”

  “I don’t remember,” Dar answered. “Why?”

  “Let’s find out!” Kerry opened the bike up. With a roar and a back blast of sand, they headed off toward the sunset.

  The Lesbian Review of Books

Seeking inspiration and a fresh start, she abandons life in Manhattan for an old Victorian house in Maine. But Dark Harbor Cottage is a far cry from the tranquil writing environment she envisioned. For a start, the place is haunted and the ghost is none too friendly. To make life even more difficult, her neighbors are a huge distraction. The Temple twins, Phoebe and Cara, are identical and profoundly alluring, and Rowe is soon under their spell, unable to decide which of the two she is more in love with.

  Just when it seems things can't get any worse, she finds herself embroiled in a mystery more bizarre and frightening than anything she's ever written.
