Midnight Men

He's the brooding literary darling who swore he'd never come home. She's the bar owner who can't afford to fall for someone who's leaving. Coming home was his first mistake. Falling for her was his second.

Calvin Midnight arrives in Dark River with one goal: settle his mother's estate and disappear back to Seattle. But the small Washington town he abandoned has other plans—starting with Maren Strand, who owns the Black Lantern bar and lives in the cabin on his family's property.

Maren's built her life on being everyone's safe harbor, pouring drinks and keeping her own heart locked away. Now the Midnight estate might be sold, taking her home with it. She should hate Calvin for what his family could cost her. Instead, she finds herself watching him work shirtless on the porch, bringing him coffee, and forgetting why falling for a temporary neighbor is a terrible idea.

He writes devastating prose about grief but can't speak his own truth. She fixes everyone's problems except her own. Now they're stuck in side-by-side cabins with paper-thin walls, dancing around an attraction that proves that the fiercest storms happen between two hearts afraid to collide.

Until the Storm Breaks is a steamy, slow-burn contemporary romance featuring forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine dynamics, and just enough push-and-pull to make you scream 'kiss already!' First in The Midnight Men series—where every love story leaves a mark.
