Summary
After a fire rips through Carla’s home and takes her husband’s life, she’s left with nothing but ash, grief, and walls she won’t let anyone climb. When electrician Lisa Swain arrives to rewire what’s left, Carla braces herself for silence and distance.
But Lisa is running from something too. She buries it in her work, fixing what’s broken in Carla’s house while quietly holding together the ruins of her own life.
Two women. One house. And a connection they didn’t expect—and didn’t know they needed.

Summary
The woman tosses the dripping tray into the bin and swans off toward her car, leaving Carla standing there soaked and vaguely baffled. She swears those big green eyes lingered on her chest a second too long, but she lets it slide.
She’s practically flashing her golden globes at half of Manchester, and of course, she’s wearing black lace. Because why wouldn’t she be?
