The Secrets of the Heart Stone

About the Book

Escape back to Maple Lane where the coffee is strong, the mysteries are deep, and the love between one woman and her three devoted men burns hotter than ever!

The Crooked Spire Book Café is thriving, a testament to Ivy Thorne’s courage and the unwavering love of Eli, Noah, and Mateo. Their unconventional family, forged in shared dreams and breathtaking passion, has found peace and acceptance in their charming Victorian home. But Great-Aunt Eleanor’s legacy holds one more tantalizing secret: an ancient map, cryptic symbols, and whispers of a legendary ‘Heart Stone’ hidden deep within the whispering maple forest.

As Ivy and her men embark on this new quest, their intellectual connection with the intense scholar Eli will deepen over late-night research, reigniting a familiar library fire. Plans for the café’s ambitious expansion – a magical attic event space and a tranquil garden conservatory – will see Ivy mediating hilarious clashes between Noah’s exuberant theatricality and Eli’s pragmatic realities, all while Noah’s playful seductions in dusty, unfinished corners promise their own kind of passionate “christening.” Mateo, whose quiet wisdom and earthy sensuality offer Ivy a unique sanctuary, will unveil his breathtaking vision for the conservatory, leading to tender, deeply personal encounters amidst sketches and the scent of growing things.

But their path to the Heart Stone is not straightforward. A sharp-tongued local historian, Agnes Periwinkle, emerges from the shadows, claiming exclusive knowledge of Eleanor’s secrets and warning them away from “meddling with things they don’t understand.” Unsettling signs in the deeper woods—disturbed earth, unfamiliar markings, and the chilling sense of being watched—hint that they are not the only ones seeking the Stone, and the forest itself seems to guard its ancient heart with a primal energy.

Will Ivy and her men decipher Eleanor’s final, most profound riddle? Can their extraordinary bond withstand new rivals and the wild whispers of the woods as they journey to nature’s altar?
