The Dating Countdown

A brilliant new feel-good sapphic romcom from the author of Sweethand

Remi Daniels knows what she wants: Maxine King. She screwed up when they were teenagers, but now that Maxine is divorced and back on the island their chemistry can't be denied. And Remi is ready to pick up right where they left off.

Maxine King has only ever fooled around with one woman: Remi Daniels. And being back in each other's orbits they can't seem to keep their hands off each other. Maxine has enough to deal with as single mom to her gorgeous daughter and trying to prove herself at work. She can't add lusting after Remi to that list. To prove that their relationship can be more than just sex, Maxine suggests they keep things casual and go on 10 friend dates. After all, if they can do that it would mean they're serious about each other right?

But their dates keep getting reset as they keep breaking their pact. Remi's getting restless because not making it to the 10 days by their imposed deadline means failure which sucks because each date just shows her how much more she wants Maxine. As the two women try to navigate this budding relationship they both have to combat their Maxine's of falling for a woman and Remi's of worrying that Maxine will reject her at the end of their deal.
