❄️ Looking Ahead to Winter
As we turn toward the quiet season, we’re revisiting one of our favorite Cape Cod love stories from the backlist — a heartfelt tale of second chances, small-town resilience, and the healing power of home:
Christmas in Cranberry Harbor
Fiction
When she returns to her Cape Cod hometown for Christmas, she’s faced with more than cocoa, cookies, and Santa arriving by boat. Her ex-fiancé is back, her dad’s newspaper is struggling, and her town is losing its young people to opportunities off-Cape. Can two people who haven’t spoken in three years find their way back to each other — and help save their town in the process?
And from our front list:
The Winterpoor
Fiction
In a groundbreaking novel that gives voice to the silent residents of Cape Cod, artist Murdo Peters must fight for his sanity and the soul of his home as he cares for a neglected boy, battles his own demons, and faces the changing landscape of a fragile peninsula. It’s the Cape as you’ve never seen it — raw, real, and full of heart.
Stay tuned for winter releases, author events, and more stories rooted in place and written to move the world.
