Brent: The Heart Reader

  • 1 Want to read

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

MY FRONT room has 122 hardwood planks that makeup the floor. It’s an exact count. Precise. Some planks in the collection have ripples, and all have the patina of wood that’s a hundred years old.

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.”
