After the Applause: A Steamy Sapphic Rockstar Poly Romance

At thirty-two, she's finally landed the opportunity of a lifetime: a seven-week co-headlining tour with Glass Harbor, the legendary indie-rock band reuniting after ten years apart.

All Darcy has to do is play her music, win over the crowds, and keep everything professional.

Then she meets Vivienne Shaw.

Forty-five, devastatingly beautiful, and intimidatingly precise, Vivienne is the kind of guitarist who can silence an entire room with one raised eyebrow. She also has a maddening habit of telling Darcy exactly what she's doing wrong.

And then there's Lena Ortiz.

Thirty-eight, warm, wickedly flirtatious, and dangerously easy to fall for, Lena knows how to make Darcy laugh, how to make her feel seen, and exactly how to get under her skin.

The problem isn't simply that Darcy wants them both.

It's that Lena and Vivienne have eighteen years of shared history, ten years of painful silence, and a love neither woman has ever been brave enough to claim.

Now they're sharing stages, hotel corridors, unfinished songs, and increasingly complicated nights.

But when professional ambitions collide with private desires, Darcy refuses to become a footnote in someone else's love story.

Three women. Three relationships. One impossible question:

Can they build something worth staying for when the music stops?

After the Applause is a scorching standalone sapphic poly romance featuring three adult women, rockstar chemistry, unresolved longing, forced proximity, emotional vulnerability, and an intensely satisfying happily-ever-after.

Three women. No choosing. All the love.
