media release: Local author T.K. Sheffield is thrilled to announce the release of her latest novel, The Valentine Lines, a charming comedy that reimagines Cupid working as a matchmaker in Mineral Point, Wisconsin.

Cupid, a.k.a. Bart McGee, trades the corporate pressure cooker of Mt. Olympus, Inc., for a simpler life in small-town Wisconsin to work as a matchmaker. But when he falls for a local baker, and his Olympus relatives descend, chaos ensues. The book is filled with snappy banter, slapstick antics, and mythological mix-ups. Beneath the fun, however, lies a heartfelt exploration of love, trust, and self-discovery.

"It's a modern Bell, Book, and Candle," Sheffield says, a writer known for cozy mysteries and uplifting stories. "This book celebrates life in southwest Wisconsin, a magical place already. I just wrote it down."

The Valentine Lines is available in ebook, paperback, and a soon-to-be-released audiobook.
