This anthology captures days gone by, where romance is sometimes slow and tender, but seething with passion beneath the velvet, satin, and proper restraint. Join Ann Bannon, Lee Lynch, and fourteen other authors celebrate lesbian historical romance and love through the centuries. A portion of the proceeds for Through the Hourglass will go to these charities that directly serve LGBT senior citizens: Services & Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE) and The Gay & Lesbian Association of Retiring Persons, Inc. (GLARP).
