Through the Red Door (The Book Nirvana Series)
Two good men compete to heal a widow’s heart—but it only holds room for one.
Unless she can find a lifeline, Clara Martelli’s Book Nirvana will close its doors forever. Her beloved bookshop’s only hope is the one thing she can’t face—her late husband’s erotica collection, still locked behind a red door since his death one year ago.
Enter two good men, each determined to win the lovely, lonely widow.
Book Nirvana’s collection surpasses widowed Professor Nick Papadopoulos’s wildest dreams, and so does the stunning bookseller. He offers help rebuilding the shop, plus understanding for Clara’s conflicted heart—but his past hides a dark secret that could shatter her fragile trust.
Divorced teacher Doug Garvey is over the moon when Clara’s closest confidant sets him up with the beautiful bookseller. Clara is kind, funny, and their friendship could bloom into so much more—if he can pry the professor’s grip off the vulnerable widow.
Clara’s libido is more than ready for a new love, but her heart is chained up in grief and guilt. When a greedy landlord threatens Book Nirvana, both suitors unite to save it—making it all the more agonizing to choose between them.
