Overview

Small-town, cute cop, and the absolute worst movie ever!

A funny, small-town lesbian romance about clashing cultures and daring to dream big.

LA-based English indie filmmaker Alex Levitin reluctantly takes a job in New Zealand to save the “worst movie ever”, Shezan: Mistress of the Forest. Things might go easier for her if she didn’t almost run over the standoffish, beautiful local cop on her first day in town. And it’d really help if her film set wasn’t being mysteriously sabotaged.

When Ika Whenu’s Senior Constable Sam Keegan isn’t trying to stamp out a motorcycle gang drug problem afflicting her town, she’s publicly slamming everything about the exploitative film, Shezan, and the Hollywood blow-ins making it. That includes its nerdy, cute director, Alex, who has woeful driving skills to go with her smart mouth.

Against the stunning scenery and chaotic film-set backdrop, attraction flares between the two warring women as they’re forced to work together to find the set saboteur.

This is a Breaking Character spin-off novel that can easily be read as a standalone story.

About Lee Winter

Lesfic author, genre hopper, twistiest of plot twisters

Welcome! I’m a full-time writer and part-time editor who was formerly an award-winning journalist and sub-editor bouncing around Australia for almost thirty years. I come late to the game at penning novels, never suspecting my non-fiction brain could jump into fiction easily.

It turns out I love it.

When not scribbling age gap and/or ice queen stories about lesbian cellist assassins, moody superheroes or investigative journalists, I wish I had some noble pursuits to list as my hobbies: Rescuing orphaned dogs. Running a Meals on Wheels service. Investigating which superfood is the most super.

In reality I can be found sleeping, weeding my garden with my partner, computer gaming and staring at my beloved bicycle, wondering what madness induced me to move to a suburb comprising 99.9 per cent hills, 0.1 per cent dales.

My spare time can also be spent looking thoughtfully at the horizon while frowning to incur writing inspiration to strike. When it does, rest assured more words and books about feisty and funny ice queens will issue forth in the future.
