A Room for Us: A Collins Novel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798254103042)

Val Vines runs the Collins Motor Lodge with one simple rule: dignity by default.

Guests arrive without questions. They rest without spectacle. They leave when they're ready.

The system works because Val built it that way.

Darcy Lenz has built her life doing the opposite. As a photographer and writer, she observes the world through a lens-documenting moments, telling stories, and always keeping a little distance from the life inside the frame.

When Darcy arrives in Collins for what should be a short stay, the quiet rhythm of the town unsettles her in ways she didn't expect.

Because Collins isn't a place designed to impress visitors.

It's a place designed to hold people.

As Darcy begins to see the town-and Val-with new clarity, she discovers something she's spent years avoiding: the difference between observing a life and living one.

But letting someone see you fully requires risk, and both women have carefully built lives that don't leave much room for it.

In a town where systems quietly support the people inside them, Val and Darcy must decide whether love is something to document... or something worth staying for.

A Room for Us is a warm, emotionally grounded sapphic romance about privacy, belonging, and the courage it takes to step inside the life you've been watching from a distance.

Perfect for readers who love small-town settings, thoughtful heroines, slow-burn chemistry, and stories where competence, kindness, and community matter.
