Windows, Weather & Wanting More: A Delaney Novel

By Greer Delaney

Some things are not ruined because they crack. Some things only learn how to hold the light differently.

Elise Kelly knows how to restore fragile things.

Give her a century-old stained-glass window, a damaged lead seam, or an entire historic chapel battered by coastal weather, and she knows exactly what to do. People are harder. People leave. People disappoint. And Elise has spent years perfecting the art of caring deeply without ever admitting how much she has to lose.

Then Noelle Cruz walks into her chapel with storm maps, uncomfortable truths, and a smile Elise finds increasingly difficult to ignore.

Noelle is a meteorologist studying the changing coastline around Delaney, and the numbers aren't good. The beloved old chapel Elise is restoring may need more than careful repairs to survive what is coming. Noelle sees vulnerability where Elise sees history-and neither woman is particularly interested in admitting how quickly professional disagreement is becoming something far more personal.

But Delaney notices everything.

Soon there are muffins, unsolicited matchmaking, suspiciously convenient volunteer meetings, and an entire town apparently invested in whether the stained-glass restorer and the weather woman are going to stop arguing long enough to realize they're falling for each other.

As storms gather offshore and the chapel's future becomes increasingly uncertain, Elise must confront a truth no restoration manual can teach her:

Protecting something isn't the same as refusing to risk it.

And sometimes the things worth saving are also the things worth changing for.

Windows, Weather & Wanting More is a warm, witty, closed-door sapphic contemporary romance about damaged things, changing forecasts, inconvenient attraction, meddling neighbors, and two women discovering that vulnerability isn't the opposite of strength-it may be the reason something beautiful survives.

Includes humor, emotional vulnerability, small-town community chaos, coastal storms, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
