Ten weeks until she leaves.
One summer that changes everything.
Emma Farley has her whole life planned: serve a mission, come home, get married in the temple. She's been preparing since she was eight years old. Now her mission call to Brazil is finally here.
Claire Hansen just came home from her own mission-confident, experienced, different than Emma remembers. When she offers to help Emma prepare for Brazil, those ten weeks of mission prep become something neither of them expected.
Late-night conversations. Stolen kisses. A love that makes Emma question everything she thought she knew about herself, about God, about who she's supposed to be.
With Emma's departure date looming closer every day, she must choose: the mission she's always wanted, or the love she never saw coming.
A powerful story of first love, forbidden desire, and finding the courage to be true to yourself-even when it costs everything.

About the Author
Meredith Wilson writes sex-positive erotica for people healing from purity culture.
Born and raised Mormon in Utah, she served a mission to Argentina, married in the temple, and spent a decade trying to be the woman she was supposed to be. At 28, she chose herself instead.
Now she writes intimate fiction exploring faith, desire, and the courage it takes to leave. Her work centers Mormon and ex-Mormon women navigating sexuality, queerness, and religious trauma with unflinching honesty and literary grace.
Meredith holds a BA in English Literature from Westminster College. She lives in Salt Lake City, where she practices ethical non-monogamy, drinks alarming amounts of coffee, and volunteers with LGBTQ+ youth. Her work has been featured in conversations about religious trauma, sexual ethics, and representation in erotica.
She believes your desire was never a sin.
