Unlike Others

Jo works for the publisher of a small magazine. She is very good at what she does and enjoys the challenges that come with her job.  Jo is not looking for love, having just ended a relationship with Karen who used her and cheated on her.  No, Jo is going to focus on her work and stay away from women… until she meets Betsy at work.  She is surprised to be so strongly attracted to Betsy, but resolves to stay away from her.  Betsy appears to be straight and has begun dating their boss, Stan.  Feeling terribly lonely, Jo ventures out… and before long circumstances bring her and Linda together.  Linda and Jo are unable to fight the powerful attraction between them, however Jo's heart still yearns for the seemingly unattainable Betsy.  When the relationship between Betsy and Stan grows and becomes entangled, Betsy turns to Jo for help and comfort… which is almost too much for Jo to bear.  Almost.

A highly-talented writer, Valerie Taylor brings us the poignant and absorbing story of a young woman's search for love and fulfillment in a world of shadowed embraces and secret vows.  And, as is often the case with her lesbian pulps, Ms. Taylor refuses to condemn her characters to negative and tragic consequences.
