Dawn offers more than hair care — she offers comfort, calm, and quiet sensual intimacy in the face of fear, grief, and change.Together, Dawn and Sara begin to rebuild a life that honors their pasts and nurtures their futures — full of bubble baths, home-cooked meals, deep-tissue massages, laughter, and slow, grown-woman desire. As their friendship deepens into love, Sara discovers that joy, intimacy, and even pleasure can coexist with illness and aging.This is rich, powerful prose, a love story with heart, body, and soul.
