Let Me Count the Ways

by Laurel Osterkamp

Tropes: characterdriven, strongfmc, humor

It was impulsive of me, sleeping with Theo; he’s a rule-obsessed sheriff who’s SO not my type. Then again, Theo’s got this knack for making me feel seen, heard, and desired… I’m Emma Jacobs, owner of The Pretty Pinecone, a romance-only bookstore. I can sell you the perfect love story, but I can't seem to write my own happy ending. When a rival bookstore threatens my beloved shop’s survival, I decide to offer wine tastings and poetry nights. There’s just one problem—Theo Baird, Sugar Pine's infuriatingly handsome yet uptight new sheriff. He’s determined to shut me down over every minor infraction. Good thing that Theo’s good looking, because his personality is desperate need of a glow-up. And yet, no one challenges me the way Theo can. As my Valentine’s Day event approaches, featuring anonymous love confessions and Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s passionate verses, our boundaries begin to blur, and I wonder if maybe I’ve misread Theo all along. But then disaster strikes, and I must decide if I’m brave enough to risk my heart on the most daring venture of all—falling in love. LET ME COUNT THE WAYS is a sparkling, small-town romance about finding courage in poetry, passion in the unexpected, and the one person who makes breaking the rules worthwhile. [Read More]

He swore off complications. She ran straight toward them. Jane Adkins (a.k.a Jane Wreck) has a talent for disaster, including an infamous puking incident that ended her jockey career before it even began. So when her engagement implodes, Jane does the only sensible thing: flees to Colorado, with no plan, no prospects, and a playlist heavy on The Chicks. She’s searching for wide open spaces. What she finds is Resilience Ranch, a sanctuary for retired horses tucked into the San Juan Mountains, and its infuriating, magnetic owner, Chet Edwards. Chet has traded Silicon Valley for solitude, and he’d like to keep it that way. He’s made that perfectly clear. Jane is trying very hard to listen. She’s failing. As stolen moments and rides at sunset blur the lines between them, Jane senses that Chet isn’t just brooding for the hell of it–he’s hiding something. Something that could shatter the fragile, reckless hope she’s only just begun to feel. Award-winning author Laurel Osterkamp returns to Sugar Pine Springs with a sweeping reimagining of Jane Eyre—a story about the wreckage we carry, the truth we owe each other, and a love that emboldens us to stay.

The Red Spring

Lizzy Stone loves her little Cornish island. She rises with the sun and she dances with the moon. She dives with the gannets and bathes with the seals. Her worship is hot and red. The Devil covets Lizzy’s island. He wants nothing more than its consumption, its integration into His calculating, mechanical designs. His desire is synthetic and bottomless. When the Devil comes a storm always comes with Him. Sort of a tradition. Only this time it will be different. THIS time His covetousness will be satiated. This time He’ll take the island for His own. Lizzy, new initiate into the order of sacred whores who protect the island, isn’t going to let Him. She’s fallen in love with Percy, a fellow apprentice. No one gets to threaten Percy’s first real home. And no one’s taking Lizzy's little sister away either, hopelessly dazzled by the glittering mainland lights as she may be. A storm will rage. Telephone poles will fall and bridges will be washed away. Say good night to the electrics and the moon and the stars. Lizzy and Percy were born in darkness, but even they’re not prepared for what’s coming. [Read More]
