Publisher's Synopsis
Charlotte Male is a woman with aspirations. And, that fire that burns in her is seen as a detriment to some. She wants to be loved on her own terms, not for appearances or for what a man can gain from her. She refuses to be owned that way.
When her relationship goes horribly awry and becomes terrifying, Lottie is forced to consider her future. Deciding to seek her two desires - to do good in the world, and find love that respects her - by going far from home. In a culture that subjugates women even more forcefully and unapologetically than the US or Canada, where she is faced every day with the consequences of allowing yourself as a woman to be possessed - she searches for an equal footing and an equal partner.
