We were given a beautiful reading the other night from Susan Lloy’s new short story collection, Deep Breaths of the Inanimate. I highly recommend picking up a copy or getting one of her previous collections (we have signed copies in store!) 💖

This book follows two hockey players pitted against each other their entire careers. What the media and fans don’t know is how sparks fly between them behind closed doors, and how their competitive natures complement each other perfectly. It’s very romantic.

Bonus: TV show coming soon!

Have you ever wondered what would happen if a contemporary hockey player went back in time to Regency England, fell in love with a Lady, and met Austen herself? Because I have, and this book truly fulfilled all my expectations!
