Moving On Kindle Edition

by Sage Donnell (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 264 ratings
Lisa is content with her life in Portland, OR. She has a teenage daughter, Jordan, who is great and becoming more independent all the time in spite of, or maybe in part because of, her fairly recent diagnosis of epilepsy. She has friends, including an ex-husband who makes a good parenting partner. She has a part time job she enjoys. But when she meets Jess, a physical therapist volunteering her time with her Jordan's high school track team, she feels something stir.

Getting closer to Jess brings romance, for sure, and also acts as a catalyst for some necessary change. But when Lisa learns more about Jess, will the spark still be there? Will Jordan be okay with the changes in Lisa's life? What about her ex-husband, with whom Lisa's life is still pretty entangled? And how will Jess deal with that?

This feel good lesbian romance follows Lisa as she navigates a new romance at thirty-eight, a changing family unit, and a teenager with health issues. The drama is low, but the romance is strong. Features an ace (asexual) character.

    Really really enjoyed. The description of low angst but lots of romance was very accurate and appreciated.
    Always love to have an ace MC. It's always interesting to see or hear asexuality in different people or characters. In my experience people have a few more questions than the characters in the book have but I don't live in Portland.
    I would be interested to revisit the family in the future.
    This was my first book by the author and I will definitely be reading more!

    Lisa is the mother of teenager, Jordan, a track star dealing with epilepsy. She's been divorced from her hubby but their lives really overlap for the sake of their daughter. Jess is the physical therapist working with the track team. Both ladies are attracted to each other very quickly but the book remains PG.

    While Lisa tries to move their connection forward, Jess tells her that she is asexual and has very significant boundaries. The author tried explaining this, especially for those of us who know little to nothing about it, but I think it fell a little short. Will Lisa, who is not ace, be willing to substitute cuddling for sexual intimacy for the rest of her life?

    I really enjoyed the loving kindness of the main characters and I just adored the teens who brought such fun and caring to the story. However, this book needed another round of proofreading. There were so many spelling and editing errors that I had to deduct a star!

    I was prepared for this to be another formulaic lesbian love story, but was I ever wrong! Sure, there are some moments we’ve come to expect from the genre, but the story is so well written that, even though you know what’s coming, it’s still a happy surprise. I heartily recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a well-written story.

    I am so enjoying this writer. Sage Donnell gives characters who are openly sharing their truths. I have felt blessed to see that knowing themselves these two strong women move on to explore their attraction. Jess who is Ace is sure she will never find someone who can love her. Lisa divorced her husband 5 years ago but to raise their daughter they have stayed entangled. Jordan has been diagnosed with epilepsy making connection and friendship needed. The conversations about the very moments that change their lives are beautiful. I could feel the love growing as Jess and Lisa share. The friendships of the track team Jordan and their parents add a rich gift of fun, laughter and so much caring. Another great read.

    Lisa and Jess make a great couple. This book has an Ace character. It is very interesting to see that perspective. I think it helps you understand more about them and what this person likes and doesn’t like. This book isn’t full of a lot of sex but still has a ton of emotion and love. Totally worth reading!

    This book which along with a PG rating, was very simplistic in its style. This is the first that I read with bisexual and asexual characters as the lead. Lisa a divorced mother of a sports playing teenager with epilepsy meets Jess a “hot” physical therapist volunteering her services for her nieces sports team. When they meet there is instant chemistry and soon they are both flirting. As Lisa is trying to move their connection forward, Jess let’s her know she is asexual(aka ace) and wants to be upfront before a relationship develops. Lisa who doesn’t really know what to do with that decides to let the relationship blossom and see where it goes. What you have is a true falling in love story. They both need to be with each other. Although Lisa knows that asexually has a wide spectrum she is unsure how far to go but she is falling fast for Jess. Now I agree that sex is not everything, and that a connection with someone spiritually and emotionally is as good as sex but I felt the writer should have delved into that a little more. Help us learn. They kiss and make out, they feel and get excited to be with each other even mentioning that Jess felt the underside of her breast but no more than that. The readers need to understand asexual and what happens when you are really into someone. That is where this fell short. However as Lisa goes through with her everyday life, ex husband who lives in same building and is still part of her social circle and their daughter who is having seizures again but trying to live her life and now Jess trying to fit in. You can feel the connection, the love and need they have for each other so I still gave this a five star because it does reach that sweet spot of a love story.

    A sweet love story exploring the complexities of finding love when you're a divorced with a teenage daughter, navigating the challenges of necessary entanglements that are part of coordinating but also how to both create space for each previous half to re-pair. The medical rep relating to Jordan's epilepsy and the challenges of having a child with a fluctuating medical condition were done really well.

    The story is told from Lisa's perspective, a queer woman doesn't use a particular label who's previously had relationships with men but realised she's more romantically and sexually attracted to women. Jess, her love interest is asexual and we are that represented from Lisa' perspective and the conversations Lisa has with other allosexual friends. I like that Lisa is open with Jess about being unsure about being in a relationship that wouldn't ever include sex but loved her position that it should be an open dialogue and that it was for Lisa to figure out and withdraw from if she couldnt sustain it, without there ever being any suggestion or pressure for Jess to change. However as an asexual person, I found the repeated questions from people outside the relationship checking that Lisa was "okay" with not having sex and some of those answers uncomfortable because of the implication of it being a sacrifice and lesser. However I think ultimately it is good rep and I like the way none of that questioning is ever the responsibility of it directed at Jess.
