For twenty years Lisa West has been self-sufficient and single.
Now she is considering a relationship, but since her menopause, sex seems to be painful. And everything about dating has changed since the last time she tried.
This is a story about daring to be different, learning to state your own needs, and trusting that love changes everything.
Candid, humorous, moving, and full of surprises, Luminaire’s writing cuts through to what’s essential.
