The Trees Between Us

Rival Christmas tree farms bring two women together against a shared threat.

About the story

Across the road, the old rivalry is alive. So is everything she tried to forget.

There are six hundred and forty trees to shear before Thanksgiving, and running a family farm alone leaves little room to dwell on the past. Then word comes that Clementine Ross is back in Cedar Hollow after eight years away.

Across County Road 9, the neighboring Christmas tree farm has always meant comparison, competition, and a family name that is difficult to ignore. Clem’s return makes all of it personal again. As the farms face a shared threat, rivalry becomes a much less useful defense against what the two women might find in each other.

A sapphic small-town holiday romance with Christmas tree farms, complicated homecomings, and the possibility of building something together on opposite sides of a familiar road.

From the opening pages

The frost came early that year, the way it always did in Cedar Hollow, silvering the lower fields before the sun even bothered to clear Sawtooth Ridge.
