Bad Influence, Good Neighbor

A reclusive author hiding behind her laptop, she is terrified of stepping outside her comfort zone. When her contract demands a steamy sapphic novel, she has the theoretical knowledge, but none of the real-world experience.

Sloane Reyes is everything Harper isn’t: a loud, confident, chaotic bartender who runs consent workshops and lives her life at full volume. When a noise complaint over a vibrating subwoofer forces Harper to Sloane's door, it ignites a spark neither woman expected.

Sloane offers to help Harper with her "research," pulling her out of her shell and into queer nightlife, underground clubs, and a world of desire she has only ever imagined. But as their late-night writing sessions turn into a blistering, undeniable reality, Harper realizes she is no longer just taking notes. She is falling for the woman she is writing about.

The problem? Sloane has spent her entire life being treated as a temporary "phase" by women figuring themselves out, and she is terrified Harper will finish the book and leave. Harper has to decide if she is brave enough to stop narrating her life and finally start living it—with the exact woman who showed her how.
