★★★★★ 5
A story of early love rekindled, and persistence overcoming obstacles
Format: Paperback
More than just a romance, this is a story of early love rekindled, and of persistence overcoming obstacles.
The tale of Jo and Lauren spans two decades and takes the reader to London, Paris, California, and the Pacific Northwest. The plot moves briskly, with unexpected twists. If you expect a pickup in a laundromat, a brawl in a bar, or a love scene at a mountain campsite...you'll be surprised.
The novel confronts the challenges faced by a same-sex couple trying to find a home in the days before marriage equality became widespread.
Funny, tender, and heartbreaking by turns, A Place For Us will stay with you long after you turn the last page.
