Almost.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA highly-talented writer, Valerie Taylor brings us the poignant and absorbing story of a young woman's search for love and fulfillment in a world of shadowed embraces and secret vows.  And, as is often the case with her lesbian pulps, Ms. Taylor refuses to condemn her characters to negative and tragic consequences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I liked you right off,\" Linda admitted, sipping her drink. \"I wanted to be more aggressive, but I didn't want to embarrass you in front of your girl.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJo frowned, disturbed. \"Betsy's not my girl.
