Deputy Abey Lee has never found love, but she wants it. Only problem? Identifying as a card-carrying lesbian is front-page news, especially when she's the only female law enforcement officer in small-town Wisper, Wyoming. Her sexuality isn’t exactly a secret, but she’s worked hard to not let it become a headline. When she’s offered a promotion that would put her in charge at the station, coming out into the light of day could risk her chance at love, and it’s only made worse by her fear of losing respect from her peers and the people she’s sworn to protect.
When Abey finds herself handcuffing the spitfire community center director—the same woman she spent one white-hot summer night with, who kissed Abey like she meant it and made her blush all the way down to her boots—her black-and-white world bleeds into grays.
Devo Mescal stands tall and proud in the light, but she carries the world on her shoulders; she fights every wrong, every injustice…and lands herself in Abey’s jail cell every damn time. If she could cool her jets, she’d see that the woman of her dreams is on the other side of those iron bars, holding the key that could unlock her hardened protestor’s heart.
