This is a beautiful and special collection of short stories, described as lush and glittery.✨✨

Leesa Cross-Smith's sensuous stories -- some long, some gone in a flash, some told over text and emails -- drench readers in nostalgia for summer nights and sultry days. They recall the intense friendships of teenage girls and the innate bonds between mothers, the first heady rush of desire, and the pure exhilaration of womanhood, all while holding up the wild souls of women so they can catch the light.

My favourites were :
We, Moons
Winona Forever
Some are Dark, Some are Light, Summer Melts
Two Cherries under a Lavender Moon

….. and there were more.
This was beautiful, special, and just unforgettable.
