Description
Edie has what seems like an almost-perfect life: awesome friends, a comfortable apartment she shares with the world's greatest cat, and a dream job as a record label talent scout. But all is not what it seems.
Conflicts are heating up in her life and at work, and things take a serious turn for the worse when she is raped while on a date. Navigating pleasure, work, friends, and her forever-changed mental state after her assault is hard enough. But when the perfect guy turns up at the worst possible time, Edie has to figure out what romance and sex mean to her in the aftermath of rape.
This offbeat feminist romance moves beyond "girl meets guy," dealing empathetically with sexual dysfunction, the ubiquity of rape culture, and what recovery can look like in the #MeToo era.

""...the best portrayal of the aftermath of a rape that I have ever read in a novel.""
