An opposites attract, young adult sapphic romance about finding a way to fight for your future.
At a summer journalism course for teens in Tasmania, privileged Samira, from a conservative, political family, and over-achiever country girl Alex bang heads. While covering a news story together, their fiery clashes turn into first love. But when things fall apart, they're left hurting.
A year later, they discover they're both interning for the same university student paper. Awkward isn't even the start of the tension between them. One thing that hasn't died is the attraction between them. Still bruised and battling expectations from friends and family, can they be brave enough to repair what broke them?

From Melbourne, Australia, Emily was recently granted her PhD. She works part-time in academia, where she hates marking papers but loves working with her students. She also loves where she lives but travels as much as possible and tends to harbour crushes on cities more than on people. She spends a lot of her time staring over the screen of her laptop and out the window at the somewhat less pretty (but highly entertaining) combined kebab stand/carwash across the road.
