Northern England 1979 - Social worker Elizabeth has finally plucked up the courage to end fourteen years of unhappy marriage. Lost and lonely, she buries herself in work to keep her emptiness at bay.
Then an unexpected phone call brings troubled teenager Jan to her door and Elizabeth shocks her friends and family by taking the traumatized young woman into her home as a lodger.
For Jan, Elizabeth is always bound to be more than just a landlady. Gentle, reserved, and quietly attractive, she has all the qualities guaranteed to make Jan love her. But Jan is still struggling to make sense of her devastating affair with a very different older woman. And in a world where love between women is still taboo, the frightened young lesbian does all she can to keep her feelings hidden.
As the friendship between the two women deepens, long buried secrets are exposed and family tensions begin to escalate. As both women are forced to confront their demons, they make choices that will change their lives and the lives of the people around them forever.
Dealing with issues of love, betrayal and abuse, and packed with memorable characters and wry humour, 'Boundaries' immediately shot into the best selling ranks for lesbian romance and lesbian fiction at the UK's independent book stores when it was first released in 1994.
Now this moving lesbian love story is available again in paperback and on Amazon Kindle and a whole new generation of readers can enjoy 'Boundaries' for the first time.
