Sometimes the universe gives us a push that feels like a shove.
After twenty years of marriage, Maggie McDonald's husband—and best friend—asks for a divorce, leaving her with one piece of advice: Call her. But the fears that kept Maggie silent for decades aren't so easy to face, especially with her out and proud daughter, Maya, watching. Maggie has spent her life choosing safety. Now she must decide whether she can finally choose truth.
Diana Blake has spent years waiting for love to find its way back. When the girl who broke her heart returns as a woman asking for help, Diana refuses to wait any longer. For her, it's now or never.
But old prejudices are growing louder and hard-fought LGBTQIA+ rights feel increasingly fragile. As the past and present collide, Maggie and Diana must learn what safety, courage, and belonging really mean. If Maggie is going to fall, she might as well, fall forward.
Falling Forward is a sapphic second-chance romance with dual timelines and dual POV. The central couple is monogamous, with a comet polyamorous relationship in the wider cast.
Contains mature themes.
