Castleton Hearts

Paige Roman is out for revenge. Not just any revenge; she’s out to mend her recently shattered heart. Her ex, Wyatt, is going to pay, and the best way to make that happen is to seduce the girl he’s always wanted but has never caught: Esme Bell. To be fair, the dark-haired bartender with the infectious laugh is the girl just about everyone wants, and Wyatt is no exception. Paige’s plan is simple, and it’s going to work. Go out with Esme, take her home, and then rub her victory in Wyatt’s face for the whole town of Castleton, Maine, to see.

Emerald Witmer is beyond pissed when her brother begs her to drive all the way across the country to pick up his girlfriend’s sister from college in Arizona and bring her back to Castleton, Maine. She’s not going to think about the fact that the girl she’s going to pick up, Natalie Johnson, was her best friend when they were kids. What starts as an annoying chore turns into a road trip of redemption when Em realizes how much she misses having Natalie in her life, and things escalate further when they get back to Castleton and share a kiss.

Charli Sweet is happy to be living in Castleton, Maine with her roommate Natalie and working at her aunt’s bakery doing their social media management. She is, promise. So, what if she can’t stop thinking about her ex who dumped her in dramatic fashion a year ago by changing the locks on their apartment? It takes a long time to get over a breakup.

Sasha Klein couldn’t be less happy to be living in Castleton, Maine. If only her sister hadn’t fallen in love with a Castleton guy who got her pregnant and then bailed on her and her little girl for Las Vegas. Sasha plans to get out of the tiny town just as soon as her sister is back on her feet. Looking for any kind of excitement, Sasha escapes Castleton and ends up at a lesbian bar, where she spills a drink on, almost gets in a fight with, and then kisses a gorgeous mystery woman. Then she sees that woman the following week at her niece’s parent-teacher conference. Awkward. 

Hollis Carr never expected her city-loving self moving to Castleton, Maine, and living in a converted barn. She’s not totally hating the slower pace of life in Castleton, but one thing she can’t handle is the pressure from her mother and her sister to find a nice person to settle down with. Hollis doesn’t do love, period. Only after immense pressure does she agree to go out with Julia Williams, her sister Ellie’s coworker. Julia is petite and bright and shiny in a way that Hollis finds completely irresistible, not to mention she’s not as innocent as she seems.

McKenna Williams is determined to let nothing mess up her zen, until she gets a request to teach a private yoga class for recent divorcee Piper Patrick, and she’s hit with an instant attraction so intense, she can barely breathe. Everything about falling for Piper is a bad idea. The magnetic pull toward each other is undeniable, and McKenna knows that it can only end in heartbreak.

Hayden Lindsey expects to spend lots of time at the beach and with her cousin Piper when she temporarily moves in with her in Castleton, Maine. What she doesn’t expect is to bump into Alessi Mason at the bakery and fight her for the last cinnamon roll. The girl she used to spend every summer in Castleton with is all grown up and she probably doesn’t even remember the last time they saw each other and that kiss they shared when they were kids.
