A luminous, erotically charged novel about ambition, desire, and the dangerous pursuit of self-knowledge.  *

Don’t Stop is a "bold, immersive debut" that explores what happens when a woman dares to want more – of the world, of her body, of herself. 

Ina is a 41-year-old literary scholar on the cusp of professional success. With a coveted university job, a kind husband, and a book on Eugene O’Neill due in months, her life appears enviably stable. But when an impulsive kiss with a stranger shatters her self-control, Ina finds herself plunged into an erotic and emotional freefall. Don't Stop is a novel of transgression, transformation, and unapologetic longing. 

“A gorgeous depiction of the journey of a soul . . .  I hated for it to end.” – Alice Elliott Dark, author of Fellowship Point
