Brent is a tarot reader, a young man whose adopted family doesn’t like tarot readers or gays or Swedes or anything else that Brent can bring to the discussion. One of his tarot readings is for a young Sioux man, and that’s where Brent’s old life stops. Brent’s finds a whole new life that is full of wonder and adventure, as he learns to read his own heart first. Viking meets Sioux — fireworks. BRENT: THE HEART READER is the tender and sexy story of self-awareness and acceptance as this wounded healer lets himself fall in love with a wonderful man. “Retired archbishop: I get that. I even can see how you might write gay fiction. It’s a niche, but I can see it. Bestseller on top of everything else: mazel tov. Explicit, which is cool. Now you know tarot? The hell? Dude, pick a lane.” Parker B. Olsson

Excerpts
Dining room’s next. It was yesterday, and I was more than halfway through the inventory of floor planks there when the phone rang. Dratz.
It had been a difficult count because of the interruptions. I should have marked the planks that I’d counted to help me stay on target. The living room had taken a week and a half, and the dining room was going to be as big a problem. Why do I need this information? Who the heck knows.
The call was for a tarot reading, and they were happy to do everything by phone. It was my only business yesterday, and I was happy to get the work. She wanted to know about somebody her daughter was dating.
First came the Five of Pentacles crossed by the Four of Pentacles. Ick.
“Get a prenup,” I told her.
“He seems so lovely,” she said.
Then why the Sam Hill did you friggin’ call me, lady? I thought to myself.
“Yes ma’am,” I said into the phone, trying to make it sound like I was smiling pleasantly.
Yeouch. Can I file for Workman’s Compensation when I bite my tongue? I thought.
“What do you see?” she asked me with a kind of British accent. I don’t think it was an upperclass accent, more like something you’d find from a blue collar woman. I don’t even know if British workers have blue collars. Maybe I’ll be curious enough to look that up some day. Not.
“The cards say there’s something about treasure,” I told her. “There’s struggle combined with not sharing. It says stinginess is some kind of issue in there.”
