Description

In a world where desire and survival are constantly negotiated, a young woman confronts the complicated pull of love, ambition, and the body’s changing needs. As relationships deepen and choices narrow, she navigates the emotional and ethical costs of wanting more—of taking what life offers and deciding what to keep. Blending lyrical intensity with sharp observation, the novel explores themes of intimacy, power, consent, and the ways communities shape what feels possible. With Sarah Rose Etter’s distinctive, character-driven style, the story moves with urgency and tenderness, offering a vivid portrait of growing up in the aftermath of longing.
