Beneath the Surface - Harper Bliss

An emotional and deeply romantic story about the strength of love to overcome any obstacle. Perfect for fans of Haley Cass, Rachel Lacey, and Clare Lydon.

Sheryl Johnson's superpower is persuasion, and when Kristin Park steps awkwardly out of a delivery van in a pale gray skirt suit and high heels, Sheryl makes it her mission to set this buttoned-up woman free.

Kristin is almost thirty, freshly out of the closet, and still figuring out what that means beyond a couple of awkward dates. She has no business showing up to a stranger's party alone on a Saturday night. But Sheryl's sunny enthusiasm makes her dig out an old pair of jeans and take a risk.

What starts as instant chemistry soon deepens into something neither of them expected: a partnership that reshapes both their lives. But even the strongest love doesn't protect you from your baggage. When Kristin's relentless ambition and Sheryl's dark past start to surface, can they save the life they've built together?

This lesbian romance includes:
- Instant chemistry
- Opposites attract
- A remote cabin retreat
- Second chances and a fresh start
- Intercultural romance
- Found family and queer community
- Dual timeline
- Community café setting
