Whisper of Love
Fletcher Flora
Lisa Sheridan- a beautiful woman, alone and unfulfilled, driven by unconventional desires… Avery Lawes- only half a man because he had never loved a woman… They met, and each saw in the other a chance for escape. And so, in a frantic search for normality, they were marred. But they could not know the terrible depths into which their union would plunge them. They could not know that theirs was a marriage made in hell !

Publishers blurp from the ffep:
‘She was his wife in name only . . . ‘I can’t look at you and talk to you and even touch you without revulsion, but I do not want to share your life or your bed.’
‘There’s a name for this oddness of mine, Avery, and it’s not a pleasant name nor a pleasant oddness, and I am very likely to be made to suffer for it. It nourishes in me a sickness of guilt and fear, and in the end may quite destroy me . . .’
A brilliant story of a woman–a lesbian–who married in a frantic attempt at normality and found that she could neither subdue nor change the terrible need that consumed her.’
