Penny Hartwell's dreams of being a celebrated artist have been reduced to sketching between shifts at a Boston gas station. Rent is overdue, inspiration has dried up, and her once-bright future feels like it's slipping further out of reach.
Anthea Corey has spent centuries guiding artists to greatness, but after too many betrayals she vanished from the world. Now, reluctantly back from a decade-long retreat, this weary muse is determined to keep things simple--and her heart well-guarded. Neither expects to collide in the hushed halls of the Boston Public Library on a bitter winter's day. But when Penny and Anthea meet, something stirs--something neither talent nor time can deny. For Penny, it's the return of inspiration. For Anthea, it's the dangerous pull of hope. And for both, it could be the beginning of something that blurs the line between art and love.Amy Allen was almost a pastor, in a previous life. Obviously that didn't work out so well. But after a few years spent writing mostly fan fiction and itty-bitty short stories, she got brave enough to try her hand at writing something bigger. Lo and behold, people liked it, so here she is now.
Amy is a trans woman who lives in Virginia with her brother and their two cats. She currently works in a used book store, surrounded by giants whose shoulders she longs to stand on. When she's not writing or working, she plays an unwise amount of video games and tabletop RPGs, and volunteers at a local museum. From time to time, she even manages to read a few books.Free shipping on orders over $75. Standard shipping takes 3-7 business days. Returns accepted within 30 days of purchase.
