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

“You know I can’t say no when you give me that look.” Alexis grinned. She leaned over, touching Calista’s hand. “How would you like to spend the day hanging out with Lynn?”


Calista’s crystal blue eyes doubled in size. “Oh Mommy, can I?” Calista dropped her hash brown on to the wax paper and looked between Lynn and her mother.


“If you want to,” Alexis said. She laughed when Calista jumped up from the chair and threw herself into Lynn’s arms. “I take that as a yes. Are you sure you can handle her?”


“Positive,” Lynn scooted her chair away from the table and allowed Calista to climb into her lap. “We had fun before when we spent the day together, didn’t we?”


“Yep, we did. I talked to Cinderella last night too.” Calista proudly displayed the toy phone that Lynn had bought for her.


“And what did Cinderella have to say?” Lynn asked.


“She told me that you, Mommy, and me were going to live happily ever after in a big sand castle.” Calista clutched the phone against her chest.
