Digital products will be delivered on August 21st

Five years ago, Terra Stern watched the love of her life die.

The screams, the gunshots, the cold concrete—all of it haunts her, and grief is a shadow she can’t escape.

Nowadays, she’s barely holding it together behind the counter at Tortalgan Coffee Co, her patience tested daily by Alex Winthrop, a devastatingly attractive but obnoxious heiress with a teasing grin and terrible taste in coffee. But when a stalker harasses Terra at her place of work, Alex steps in, and Terra feels something she hasn’t felt since that awful, fateful night: safe. After a shared kiss—well, maybe a little more than a kiss—on a stormy night, something beautiful begins to blossom.

But Alex has scars as well, and Terra’s path of self-destruction comes with dangerous consequences. Is love truly enough to heal? Or will their mutual secrets drive them apart?

To Love the Stars too Fondly is a witty but emotionally vulnerable story about two women navigating trauma, desire, and the messy hope of recovery. It is the first book is the Steaming Hearts series but can be enjoyed as a standalone.
