Possum Run Books in Order

Possum Run is Darlene Tallman’s take on small‑town, contemporary romance without a motorcycle club at the center. Instead, the focus is on a tight community where everyone knows everyone, second chances are possible, and love shows up in the middle of ordinary life.

The duet collected in Whispers of Love brings together two key stories. What I Like About Sunday pairs military veteran Sunday Cross, who’s still unpacking her service and its aftermath, with single dad Jett Blake. Their romance grows out of co‑parenting chaos, shared laughter, and the slow realization that they’re both allowed to want more than just getting by. Starting Over With You follows Manny Alvarez, a formerly incarcerated tattoo artist trying to keep his head down, and Ricci Adams, a woman on the run from an abusive ex.

Possum Run itself feels lived‑in: there are diners where everyone knows your order, gossip that can be both suffocating and supportive, and neighbors who show up with casseroles when everything goes wrong. The stories tackle heavy topics—PTSD, stigma, domestic violence—without losing the warmth and optimism that define the best small‑town romances.

If you like grounded, character‑driven love stories with a strong sense of place, this series is an excellent choice.
