The Story

About the Book

The pottery date was supposed to come with a man. Instead, Sophie Ellis walks into the studio alone.

After another dating app disappointment, Sophie is already dressed, already paid, and far too stubborn to go home just because her date canceled at the last minute. Surrounded by couples at a romantic pottery night, she expects humiliation, awkward small talk, and one very crooked bowl.

She does not expect Grant Mercer.

Grant is the quiet, steady owner of Mercer Clay Studio, a man with patient hands, a guarded heart, and a gift for making broken-looking things feel worth keeping. When Sophie’s clay collapses almost immediately, he steps in with kindness instead of pity. Soon, one embarrassing date night turns into beginner classes, private studio hours, and a connection neither of them can quite name.

Sophie came to the studio hoping to find love the right way. But as late-night lessons, clay-covered hands, almost-kisses, and one cracked bowl bring her closer to Grant, she begins to realize love might not look like the perfect plan.

It might look messy.

It might look unexpected.

It might look like the man who gave her a seat at the wheel when someone else failed to show up.

The Pottery Date is a short, cozy contemporary romantic comedy about second chances, creative disasters, and finding something real when the plan falls apart.
