The first kiss reminded her of raspberry sherbetβ¦
And no man's kiss has since matched that wonderful, summery essence in all its glory. LilyRose knows her rare ability to "see" sounds and "taste" shapesβsynesthesiaβis a gift that defines who she isβ¦but it's also made her an object of ridicule.
And made her an outcast. That is, until a mean-spirited customer mocks a young girlβand kindred spiritβshe's befriended. Years of repression suddenly give way when LilyRose hurls a basket at that customer. And finds herself being escorted from her shop in handcuffs!
For decades LilyRose has searched for that special man who could teach her to embrace her uniqueness. She just didn't expect to find him waiting to pick her up from jailβ¦.
