Salvage Terms: A Sapphic Second-Chance Romance Novella
No Customer Reviews
A novella with a complete, single-sitting slow burn.
Nine years ago, they built something real. Then they built separate lives instead.
Dara Voss and Sable Reyes once ran the most respected historic restoration firm on the Eastern seaboard - until the same ambition that made them brilliant together tore them apart. No betrayal. No lie. Just two people who loved each other and still chose different futures.
Nine years later, they're each hired - separately - to save Aldermere, a crumbling Gilded Age estate on the verge of demolition. Neither finds out the other is involved until they're standing in the driveway together.
Dara stayed small, hands-on, and safe, building a life she could control down to the last detail. Sable went big, built a national platform, and made herself impossible to need. Now, working side by side for the first time in nearly a decade - as equals, not the twenty-eight-year-olds who fell apart - they discover that time hasn't dulled the pull between them. It's only made it more dangerous.
Saving Aldermere means deciding what's worth preserving and what has to change. Saving each other might mean the same thing.
