Sisters by Sorcha Rowan

5.0

Sorcha Rowan is a remarkable author, a woman of both sweetness and kinkiness, a veritable Mistress of fetish with as much a flair for romance as erotica. Her stories are more than just wonderful reads, they are gorgeous escapes into the realm of women who love other women.

Sisters (But Not Like That) is one of those stories that lands gently on the sweetly romantic end of the bookshelf. It is a period piece, set in the more innocent (and less progressive) era of the 1950s. Jessica and Bobby have been the best of friends since they were preschoolers, and while circumstances have prevented them from being more, Bobby has always dreamed.

The problem is, as much as Bobby loves her, Jessica is the daughter of a strictly religious family, and she has always had to play the good girl who only dates good boys. She has, however, been secretly been in love with Bobby for years, and when another date ends badly . . . she seizes the initiative and claims the kiss she has so long desired.

"We aren't going to be able to walk down the street and hold hands . . . So no, I'm going to take every second I can to just look into this soft blue eyes. I'm going to hold your hands and kiss your fingertips."

What I loved so much about this was the passion between the two young women. Even when lost in the moment, enjoying the pleasures they have to offer, they never lose sight of that friendship - especially since those stolen moments are all Jessica can have. That does not mean they cannot get kinky, or that they are above exploring boundaries, but it is always romance, not lust, that guides their actions. Just a lovely tale, with a lovely happily-for-now ending that lets us hope they might one day be able to live and love openly.
