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

“Katie! Listen to me. No one is going to blame you. I would kick their asses if they do.” Alexis placed her palm on Katie’s cheek. “I won’t let you go through this alone.” Katie collapsed into Alexis’s arms and closed her eyes as Alexis dialed the police.


“What’s going on,” Lynn asked when Alexis stepped into Calista’s bedroom. Calista had fallen asleep in Lynn’s arms while watching Sleeping Beauty, but Lynn was still wide awake.


“The crime scene is finishing up in the living room and Katie’s in the bathroom. Lynn, we can’t stay here.” Alexis crossed the floor, stepping over the Barbie dolls and teddy bears scattered across Calista’s bedroom. “That box…It was meant for you, not Katie.”


“What!” Lynn fought the urge to set bolt right, but she did not want to wake Calista. “How do you…”


“There was a note attached. It said ‘Katie was fun, but…’” Alexis inhaled before continuing, “‘But Lynn will be so much…sweeter to claim.’”
