A new lesbian romance about healing, desire, and the power of Black love after heartbreak. At the Crown and Glory Natural Hair Salon in Charlotte, North Carolina, every style has a story — and for Sara, a brilliant college professor battling sudden hair loss and a devastating Lupus diagnosis, that story begins with pain. When Sara meets Dawn, a faith-filled, widowed natural hair stylist with healing hands and a heart of gold, what begins as a simple appointment blooms into something deeper. Dawn sees past Sara’s illness and shame, offering more than just protective styles and homemade bath oils — she offers comfort, care, and quiet sensual connection. As Sara adjusts to a new life with chronic illness and confronts the emotional weight of her diagnosis, Dawn becomes more than a friend — she becomes a safe haven. Together, they cook, laugh, walk, bathe, and slowly build a life that honors both their grief and their desire. Tender, mature, and full of heat, Comfort is a deeply moving story of two grown Black women who learn to love themselves — and each other — without apology. It’s about joy after loss, intimacy without shame, and building a future when the world says it’s too late.
