Mit siebenunddrei�ig Jahren hat Lena Bergmann ihr Leben so perfekt konstruiert wie ihre Geb�ude: mit klaren Linien, undurchdringlichen Glasfassaden und einem Fundament von chirurgischer K�lte. Als brillante Architektin und angehende Partnerin einer prestigetr�chtigen Berliner Kanzlei hat sie alles ihrem Erfolg geopfert - vor allem ihre wahre Identit�t. Gefangen in einem goldenen K�fig, verbietet sich Lena, Frauen offen zu lieben, aus Angst, ihre ehrgeizige Welt k�nnte in sich zusammenbrechen.

Bis eine weitere mond�ne Abendveranstaltung sie zu ersticken droht und sie in die regnerischen Stra�en von Prenzlauer Berg fl�chten l�sst.

Dort, hinter dem beschlagenen Schaufenster einer kleinen unabh�ngigen Buchhandlung, begegnet sie Mila.

Mila Fischer ist all das, was Lena sich selbst versagt: herzlich, spontan und fest im Hier und Jetzt verwurzelt. Die Buchh�ndlerin mit dem strahlenden L�cheln hat sich ein authentisches Leben aufgebaut, umgeben von engagierten Romanen, dampfendem Kaffee und Mandelkeksen. Doch Mila hat eine goldene Regel: Sie weigert sich, jemandes Geheimnis zu sein. Diese Rolle hat sie in der Vergangenheit bereits gespielt, und es hat sie fast zerbrochen.

Zwischen b�chergef�llten G�ngen und den Sternenn�chten Berlins ist die Anziehung zwischen diesen gegens�tzlichen Frauen �berw�ltigend. In Milas Armen entdeckt Lena eine verzehrende Leidenschaft und einen Zufluchtsort, auf den sie nicht mehr zu hoffen gewagt hatte. Doch als der unerbittliche Druck der Architekturkanzlei und das Getuschel der Kollegen die Realit�t einholen, bekommt Lenas Fassade Risse. Pl�tzlich sieht sich Mila zur blo�en "Freundin" degradiert.

Um die Frau zu halten, die ihr Herz geweckt hat, muss Lena die schwerste Entscheidung ihres Lebens treffen: weiterhin in der Stille ihrer Geheimnisse zu gl�nzen oder alles zu riskieren, um endlich ein Leben in Freiheit aufzubauen.

Ein intensiver, sinnlicher und zutiefst bewegender saphischer Liebesroman, der den Mut zur Selbstbehauptung, den Aufprall zweier Welten und die transformative Kraft der wahren Liebe erforscht.
