Welcome aboard the Maiden Voyage , where the all-female crew navigates more than just turbulent waters. This series of novellas follows the romantic adventures of these queer women, where every charter brings new possibilities. When a mysterious guest boards the luxury yacht Maiden Voyage, chef Lindsay Brewin expects nothing more than another routine week of five-star service in the Bahamas. What she doesn't expect is Maddie McDean—global superstar, tabloid sensation, and the woman currently accused of assaulting her husband. Falsely accused and hounded by the media, Maddie seeks refuge on a yacht where she hopes to find some peace. But when sleepless nights lead to midnight wine sessions with the yacht's chef, their intimate conversations over candlelit meals ignite a dangerous attraction. Lindsay has built her life around responsibility—supporting her sister's family and maintaining her spotless professional reputation. She's never been the type to fall for a guest, let alone a married celebrity embroiled in scandal. But Maddie's vulnerability beneath her fame, and the chemistry that sparks between them, makes Lindsay break every rule she's ever lived by. Will the price of being together prove too high to pay? Midnight Wine is a forbidden romance that explores the collision between ordinary life and extraordinary fame.
