Falling in love wasn’t part of the plan in this lesbian romance from best-selling author Jae. Susanne Wolff isn’t thrilled when her mother sends her all the way across the country to Freiburg to save her uncle’s stationery store from bankruptcy.

As the end of Susanne’s three-month stay approaches, will she stick to her plan to leave, or will she open her heart to more than just paper love? …

Very enjoyable romance with a nice long getting to know each other period. Nice to see a romance set in Germany. And knowing the author a bit, I'm sure she enjoyed the research for this one a lot!
