Silver Valley: A 1970s Commune Reverse Harem Romance by M.E Sterling

Summer, 1975. Traveling mechanic Cade Winslow breaks down on a mountain road with a dead truck and nowhere to be. What he finds at the end of that road isn't the chaotic hippie compound he expects. It's Silver Valley: a prosperous, organized estate that funds its luxury through silverwork, timber, and orchards, governed by a doctrine its founders call Complex Marriage. No contracts. No rules on paper. No jealousy, and no exceptions.

Matriarch Evelyn takes a personal interest in undoing everything small-town values ever taught Cade about ownership and love. Summer and Penny, who grew up inside the commune and have never known anything else, compete cheerfully to finish the job. Elder Roman mentors him in the silver shop and in everything the shop doesn't teach. One summer in, Cade has to decide whether the life he thought he wanted was ever actually the one he needed.

Silver Valley is a high-heat 1970s historical harem romance about an outsider slowly, willingly given a family he never knew how to ask for.

Explicit. 18+. All characters adults. Every relationship open, known, and freely chosen.
