    About this ebook

    What happens when a lesbian falls in love with her best male friend--and he's married?

    San Francisco, mid-1990s. In this poignant short personal memoir, Gabriella West revisits her twenties to explore a confusing friendship with a married couple that started promisingly, but became a painful and obsessive love. Readers who have found themselves lost in destructive and addictive relationships will find it compelling reading.
