Evelyn Driscoll, famed novelist and professor at a small midwestern arts college, has been feeling lost. It’s been over seven years since her hit book came out, her editor is clamoring for a new manuscript, and life in northern Ohio just doesn’t compare to the literary world she once inhabited. Her love life feels like even more of a mess. Evie is really beginning to feel trapped.

When one of her graduate writing students, the beautiful and talented Meadow Sims, makes her adoration known, Evie feels the passion she once had for life and love all start coming back. Meadow is smart, sweet, and she has almost completed a novel of her own. But Evie and Meadow must thread the needle carefully, keeping their romance hidden from a jealous rival student and the university administration.

Can this love affair succeed despite the professional consequences? Will love win out over jealousy and prohibition? Blossoming love can be a catalyst for change, and accepting everything that change entails isn’t always the easiest proposition. But it could be exactly what Evie needs.
