Synopsis

There’s only so long you can hide who you are.

Flick Lindenwood, fresh from college, has returned home to the suburban haven of Green Valley, back to society…and the source of her heartbreak. Four years ago Elodie Hamilton savagely broke her heart, and Flick has no intention of letting her pretty ex get back under her skin. As far as she’s concerned, she and Elodie never happened.

But Elodie has other ideas.

Afraid to come out, Elodie chose to destroy her relationship with Flick rather than let her family know who she was. But now she wants to right the wrong she did—if she can only find the nerve, and if she can convince Flick to see past the pain she caused.

Chapter One

      The door of the Dodge Charger slammed behind her as Flick Lindenwood walked up the driveway to the house, dragging her wheeled suitcase after her.
      It was exactly as she remembered. Pansies and tulips bloomed in the borders of the front garden, edging an elegantly mown lawn. In front of her stood the house, two stories rising behind a large veranda, a curtain twitching in one of the windows.
      Before she reached the front door, it opened to reveal her mother. Flick let the handle of the case go and stepped forward to meet her in a hug.
      “Felicity, darling! We’ve been waiting all morning.”
      “Sorry, Mom. Traffic.”
      Her mother stepped back, smiling, and looked her up and down.Flick bore the scrutiny patiently. She had a new haircut and outfit which had yet to receive maternal approval.
      Apparently they did. Her mother pulled her back in for another hug. “You look lovely, darling. Oh, it’s so good to see you. I’ve got so many things to tell you—I’ve been organizing your graduation party, and then there’s the Saulters’ barbecue tomorrow, and—”
      “All right, all right!” Flick broke in, laughing. “Let me get in first!”
      She followed her mother into the entrance hall, noticing that the lounge door was open on her left. Through the doorway she could see her graduation photograph taking pride of place on the marble mantelpiece, blocking off part of the gold-edged mirror.
      “Don’t be long,” Mrs. Lindenwood added airily as Flick made her way toward the staircase. “I want to hear everything. Have you met any nice girls?”
      “Not yet,” Flick threw back over her shoulder. “Complete lack of nice girls lately.” She heard her mother’s laughter retreat into the living room as she continued up the stairs, rolling her eyes indulgently.
      Any nice girls, indeed. Her mother was ever so proud of herself for being so open-minded about Flick’s sexuality. Coming out two years earlier, from the safety of her college campus, had been much easier than she had expected. Apparently it was really quite fashionable in Green Valley society to have a lesbian daughter.
