Second Takes: A Slow-Burn Sapphic Romance (Second Chances Collection Book 1)

A slow-burn sapphic romance about fame, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to fade.

Tali Morgan is Hollywood's golden girl - bold, brilliant, and always pretending she's okay. But when she's cast in a buzzy new film opposite her ex, the woman she never stopped loving, the cracks begin to show.

Rin Lau is elegance wrapped in armor. Years ago, Tali left her behind - no closure, no warning. Now they're forced to work together, sharing scenes, cameras, and history that never really died.

The tension is undeniable.

The chemistry is still electric.

And when one impulsive kiss sparks back everything they tried to bury... nothing stays scripted for long.

Then Tali's world implodes: she's named guardian to her infant niece, and suddenly, motherhood is no longer hypothetical. Rin, shockingly, doesn't run. She steps in.

Forced into close quarters, the walls between them start to fall. But Hollywood has sharp teeth, and old wounds cut deeper when the spotlight is watching.

Can two women with a history of leaving learn how to stay?
