Thank you so much!!! Always nice to hear such high praise :)
And excellent question! The tldr is that this is the first in a series of novellas following Donna, Will, their respective sisters, and the town of Vinland, MA writ large. I came up with the concept and setting for Death's Harbor about six years ago and spent a long time toying with it before finally figuring out the story I wanted to tell a few months ago. I have plans for lots of different Death's Harbor Romances, most following Will and Donna as they go further in their relationship but some about other couples as well, plus a few that will delve more into the history of the town. So stick around! There's lots more to come, and I hope you enjoy the future installments as much or more than this one!
