She Finally Found Her Chance. Jessica never expected a funeral to change her life. When her closest mentor dies, she shows up in black silk, braced for grief — and for Judy, the cold partner who always wanted her gone. She survives the service. She almost walks away clean.

Judy is crashing. Her daughters are falling apart. And Jessica is the last person anyone should want in that waiting room… until she meets Sarah — blonde, blue-eyed, and already looking at her like she’s not a stranger at all.
