Publisher Description

Piper Stevens has always been intimidated by best friend Max Lockett’s older sister, Jamie, despite having been practically taken in by the Lockett family from the age of fourteen. Given her rough past in foster care, her altogether shy and nervous disposition, and a tiny crush on the openly queer woman that caused Piper to come to terms with her own sexuality, things have always been awkward between them.

After two years of traveling, Jamie is back in their small town of Hebden Bridge, and seeing Piper again brings back old feelings — as well as new ones. Jamie has never understood the uneasiness between them, and she resented the way it made her feel out of place in her own home, but they're both willing to try to be friendlier for Max's benefit.

When Piper agrees to model for Jamie’s plus-size handmade clothing line, it soon becomes clear that the tension between them stems from more than just awkwardness. But can they allow themselves to finally fall for one another, or will their mutual loyalty to Max keep them apart?
