Splinters of Grace: A Sapphic Second Chance Romance

By Maxine Jacqueline Friedberg

Shannon Nash is running on empty. After her breakup with Grace, the woman she thought she'd spend forever with, Shannon spirals into a cycle of alcohol, regret, and self-destruction. With her life in shambles, an eviction notice on her door, and Grace gone without a trace, Shannon retreats to a rundown motel in a forgotten corner of the city. There, she meets Jenna, a no-nonsense bartender with a knack for seeing through Shannon's defenses.

Jenna isn't looking to save anyone, but something about Shannon-the bruised knuckles, the hollow gaze, the way she clings to even the smallest kindness-makes it impossible to look away. As Shannon grapples with her addiction, guilt, and longing for Grace, Jenna becomes a lifeline in a world that feels like it's slipping away. Their connection is electric yet fragile, forcing Shannon to confront the question she's been avoiding: Is she capable of rebuilding herself-and her life-without losing everything she once held dear?

Splinters of Grace is a heart-wrenching, emotionally raw sapphic romance about second chances, self-forgiveness, and the power of unexpected connections. Perfect for readers seeking poignant, character-driven love stories, this novel will resonate with anyone who's ever fought to reclaim hope from the ashes of heartbreak.
