I bet my last dollar on a shuttered tea room.
Now the whole hockey team thinks I can read their future… in their teacups.
I’m Esme. I read tea leaves the way my great-aunt taught me: part theater, part paying close attention. Two matches called right, and Puckridge decided I’m the real thing.
Then the hockey crew found my shop.
Four cups. Four men. The same signs in every one: warmth. Home. Someone close:
Cormac — the defenseman who walked in to prove me a fraud. Instead, he’s proving something else.
Reuben — the goalie who won’t start a home game without his Tuesday cup.
Marek — the winger who never asks for a reading, and acts in mysterious ways instead.
Alec — the beta who booked the team’s readings as a joke. He figured out the truth before anyone. He’s not telling.
I try to set them up with other women; yet they keep coming back to see me. And the suppressants I’ve trusted for years pick this fall to start slipping.
The whole town can see what I can’t. The leaves keep promising the same thing: someone is right for you. Someone close. And once I finally read my own cup properly… I intend to drain it to the last drop.
Knot in the Tea Leaves is a steamy cozy omegaverse why choose romance featuring a matchmaker who can’t match herself, found family, generous knotting, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
Perfect for readers who love:
• A tea-leaf reader who sets up every successful match in town except her own
• A grumpy skeptic losing the same argument twice a week — on purpose
• Nesting, scent matches, and knotting as her suppressants finally fail
• Reverse harem HEA with all four — no choosing required
