Mirrors

There are plenty of reasons why Jean Carson isn’t a lesbian: she’s a wife; she’s a Catholic; and she’s a teacher at a school where even a rumor could get her fired. Shayna Bradley is just a good friend. But Jean’s a wife who doesn’t want children with her husband. A Catholic who rejects the teachings of the Church. And a teacher desperate to help one of her students–and failing, because there’s nothing she’s allowed to say to “Lezzie Lin.” They all deserve better. Especially Shayna. Jean decides to ask for a divorce. But divorce isn’t the same as leaving the closet. Not when she’s desperate to keep her job. Jean stays silent. The bullying continues. Soon Lezzie Lin is fighting for her life. There are plenty of reasons why Jean Carson isn’t a lesbian. And plenty of reasons to announce that she is.
