    Summary

    Former Lovers AU (the angsty fic no one asked for) || Therese Belivet, an artist selling her works on a street in NYC, fell in love with a beautiful English expat, Carol Aird seven years ago. Therese saw her frequently and the gorgeous woman quickly became the muse of the striving artist. Carol, a lawyer, had just moved to NYC for work back then when she gradually fell in love with the younger woman. After a few years of romance, Carol needed to return to London. A long-distance love ensues but eventually falters. Therese, having suffered badly from the break up, was hung up for such a long time. Years later, she is finally getting her life back on track but in a sudden turn of events, Carol returns to her life.

    Will there still be a possibility for them to fall in love or is everything too late?

    Summary

    The Red Scare gripped the American nation for a decade. It was a time during which families and lives were ripped apart by accusations and rumors. A time in which openly gay men and women were especially targeted for their believed communist ties.

    It was also the time for Carol and Therese to attempt to put the trials and tribulations of the past year behind them and get on with their new life together. The question then is could they ever really have a life together in a world still so set against them?
