Brooke Metcalf is an accomplished therapist who’s fallen into a rut she can’t seem to shake. Tegan Cooper is a recent graduate trying to acclimate to a new city before starting the job she’s worked for years to secure. At the nudging of good friends, they end up at the same bar, seeming to have little in common but a desire to do something different. A spark of connection and immediate attraction spurs them to take chances they wouldn’t normally consider, ending with an amazing and affirming one-night stand that leaves both women at peace, until they arrive at work on Monday to find Tegan is a new junior colleague under supervision in the practice where Brooke works. 

Shocked and unprepared for the far-reaching fallout of one uncharacteristic encounter, Tegan and Brooke cling to their careers as they start a delicate dance between forging a workplace relationship and protecting their hearts in the process. With the help of amazing colleagues and a determination to do right by everyone in the office, they build a friendship based on mutual care and a healthy respect for boundaries. However, in a business that requires intimate conversations and vulnerable moments, lines between professional and personal soon blur, as the connection that once overtook them proves too powerful to ignore.

Informed Consent is a tender, one-night-to-forever, age-gap romance exploring the wide reach of love, trust, healing, and the courage to embrace what you know to be true even when it doesn’t align with what’s safe or expected.
