From the outside looking in, Lynn Feoras seemingly has everything a woman could desire. With numerous platinum selling CDs, lavish homes, and the ability to bring down the house with her powerful vocals, who could want for more? Lynn. Alexis Donatella is a jaded SVU officer who has no tolerance for the rich and famous. She has devoted her life to raising her daughter and to the Florida division of the Special Victims Unit. Venturing into a relationship is the furthest thing from her mind. When Alexis and Lynn meet on the sandy beaches, sparks do not exactly fly, at least not for Alexis. When you add in a rambunctious child, a tragic secret from Lynn’s past, and obstacles no one could have foreseen, it makes for one frenzied summer. In the midst of madness, is it possible for these two women to find love?

Broken Star

“Stay.” Alexis grasped Lynn’s hand as their eyes met. “I don’t like the thought of you staying in that house alone. He…There was another victim today.”


“Oh, Alexis,” Lynn pulled Alexis into her arms and held tight. “I’m so sorry.”


“She was so young. When we finally were able to ID her we learned she was just nineteen.” Alexis pulled away and rubbed her forehead. “It’s all such a nightmare. I just…I would feel better if you stayed with us.”


“You’re worried about me,” Lynn tilted her head.


“Yeah, I am.” Alexis smiled when she saw the desire that flickered into Lynn’s eyes. “I should go clean up the kitchen.”


“Already taken care of,” Lynn took Alexis’s hand and led her over to the sofa as they both took a seat. “Why don’t you let me go get you something to drink? It’s the least I can do if I am going to be your house guest again tonight.”


Alexis grinned. “After the day I’ve had, a beer would be perfect. I’ll find us a good movie.”
