Lila Jaworski

**Lila Jaworski** is a recurring character in the Free Spirits series. She is in an open triad with Peri Winger and Andrew Hamady, and appears in all but two of the thirteen books in the series.

## Description

Lila is short-to-average in height, with loosely curled black hair, chestnut-brown eyes, and dimpled cheeks. She has an outgoing and bubbly personality, spontaneous and flirtatious, and with an uncanny intuition for discerning when people are attracted to one another. Lila works as a production assistant for the city's public television station.

## *Peri's Bliss*

Lila is doing door-to-door outreach for the downtown Local Gathering when she first meets Peri; they connect immediately, and Peri eventually joins the Free Spirits and begins dating Lila and Andrew Hamady. They form an open triad, then buy a house together in the suburbs just south of Stallbrook, where they are also members of the newly birthed south metro Gathering.

## *Bridget's Calling*

Lila also befriends the escort Bridget Torjesen, learns more about the difficulties she faces as a sex worker, and expresses her support for sex worker rights. When things end badly between Bridget and a female client, Lila offers emotional support and advice to her. When Will Gentile and his daughter Miranda are provided sanctuary at the south metro meetinghouse, Lila spends time with Miranda.

## *Hannah's Healing*

Lila and Andrew welcome Hannah Stutzman into the home they share with Peri (who arrives later, after taking care of some issues with her mother). Hannah finds in Lila a supportive friend and confidant, and Lila consents to (and enjoys) having Hannah watch her making love with her partners and others. Later, she introduces Hannah to an old college friend, Melinda, with whom Hannah eventually forms a relationship. Lila and the others in the triad give Hannah a sendoff when she moves to Indianapolis.

## *Laurie's Liberation*

Lila first meets Laurie Franklin at a literature table for the Free Spirit Connection in the suburb of Pattensville. Laurie meets her again at the Election Night party at the triad's house. Lila is also one of the circle of friends at Chloe's Café in the closing chapter.

## *Zoe's Quest*

Lilia first meets Zoe Morton at a Young Poly meeting at the Café Sureño in Stallbrook's South End, which is soon followed by a group sex scene. She also participates in other sexual escapades with her and others, including two at the house she shares with Peri and Andrew.

## *Jeretta's Judgment*

Lila and Peri appear in the first chapter, the night before Andrew leaves to co-lead the arbiter training workshop in Cleveland.

## *Adara's Apostasy*

Lila joins Adara Khan and others in a girls' night out at Tandy's Bistro, then later helps to coordinate an erotic fantasy role-play for Adara involving Andrew.

## *Priscilla's Transformation*

As part of the joint outreach team for Stallbrook's Free Spirit community, Lila moderates the "town hall" meeting in the city's North End regarding the birthing of the north metro Local Gathering, and assists in other ways.

## *Moira's Covenant*

Lila is serving at the café for the Local Gathering when Moira Cloutier volunteers there, and shows support for her relationship with Wil and Daria Jackson. Later, she and her partners host their collaring ceremony at their house.

## *Sophie's Wisdom*

Lila and his partners help with the separation ceremony for Sophie Giuliani and her departing submissive Caleb, and later host a special dinner and sex party where Sophie collars her new submissive Adrian. Lila also leads a discussion on outreach for area Free Spirits, where Sophie talks about her presentation for the University of Stallbrook's Interfaith Council.

## *Jenny's Peace*

Lila is co-leader of the Wayfinding class attended by Jenny Brooks, and also gives a presentation on Free Spirit outreach.
