Tangled Lines - A Scottish LGBT Sapphic Contemporary Romance

If by chance, you enjoy wit, humour and a wee bit of romance hopefully my novel will peek your interest. My Scottish, LGBT Fictional Slow Burn Romance—Tangled Lines, is around 83,500 words. Set within the beautiful country of Scotland. Tangled Lines does contain a lot of profanity, unpolitically correct context and a few other choice words, so please read with caution. There is a wee bit of Scottish wording mixed in, so please let me know if this is a problem. Tangled Lines tells the story of two very pitiful women— Isla Macleod 38, a trawler woman​/​fisher from the Isle of Skye and Lady Paisley Campbell 39, an uptight solicitor from Edinburgh. Both desperately seeking out a romantic, life fulfilling relationship. Both failing miserably along the way. Tangled Lines explores their lives; through the trials and tribulations of online apps, blind dates and family expectations. Comical and emotional. Laughter and tears, as you follow their most intimate and desperate moments. Through missed connections, arguments about wealth and status, and most tragic of all, grief.
