Millfield, Minnesota

The Town

From the author.

L. M. Sterling

L. M. Sterling writes emotionally intense contemporary romance about competent adults, hard weather, and hope that has to be earned. These stories are for readers who want flawed, capable people confronting real consequences — and relationships built through action rather than rescue.

Love does not erase grief, trauma, responsibility, or the weight of the life that came before. It gives two people a reason to face those things together.

Set among farms and small towns in southeastern Minnesota, where the weather decides the week. The characters fall in love slowly, imperfectly, and as equals, over a season of work and in front of a town with opinions.

These are open-door books, and the burn is slow.

What is coming.

  • Touched by Thunder Book One · Out now
  • Frost Line Book Two · Working title · In editing
  • Lightning’s Reach Book Three · Working title · Coming

Millfield is built to hold more than one trilogy. Other stories are coming, set in the same town, with the same regard for the work and the weather.

The first three chapters.

Join the list and they come to you. You will also be first through the gate when Frost Line opens. Occasional letters from Millfield, and nothing else.
