Lesbian romance reviews. Sighhh…
Struggling actress working in a family-run coffee shop, occasionally takes time off for auditions. She's overweight, so she hardly ever gets acting work. She has a heart of gold though. One day, she goes to yet another crappy audition, only it turns out this is a pretty unusual gig - in real life, this fabulously … Continue reading Just for Show by Jae
Not one of Georgia Beers' finest, but readable. In which a slightly up-tight accountant falls for a live-in-the-moment marketing whizz who brings a whole load of colour into her boring, predictable work life.

But what matters … Continue reading What Matters Most by Georgia Beers
