My Ex's Hot Mom Is Not My Type: An Age-Gap Sapphic Romance

Vivian Hartwell has spent twenty-five years perfecting the role of the composed, untouchable wife. But at forty-nine, newly divorced and reclaiming her empty lake house, she is finally ready to shatter the porcelain cage she’s been trapped in. Her declaration of independence? A massive, unapologetic back tattoo.

Enter Jules Rivera. At twenty-eight, the fiercely talented tattoo artist uses her brash confidence and her ink as armor. She’s built a successful studio and a carefully guarded life—one she refuses to let anyone disrupt. Especially not the elegant mother of her college ex-girlfriend.

As their weekly tattoo sessions blur the lines between professional distance and crackling desire, both women are forced to confront the truths they’ve spent years avoiding. Vivian is discovering a terrifying, exhilarating new world, while Jules is realizing that the woman whose skin she’s marking might just leave a permanent mark on her own heart.
