A Matter of the Heart
A guarded L.A. reporter, an Oregon lumberjack — from the rugged coast to the streets of Chicago.
An Independent Publishing House
The corner where stories gather.
A small independent house for character-driven, romance-forward fiction with heart — the kind of stories that make you feel something and stay with you.
Nº I · The House
A small house with a long memory
Craft first. Voice always. Readers above all.
Ten West is an independent publishing house built on a simple conviction: the best stories make you feel something, and they stay with you. We champion a handful of authors at a time, put craft and voice first, and treat every book like it matters — because it does.
Romance-forward and character-driven, our list is unafraid of the hard, human stuff: longing, grief, second chances, and the courage it takes to be truly seen.
Nº II · The Catalogue
On our shelves
Three stories, kept the way books should be kept.
Fractured
A second-chance WLW romance of longing, danger, and truth — two women with intertwined pasts.
Dancing with Venus
A blues performer, a classical cellist, and the raw, emotional heat that pulls them together.
Nº IV · The Readers’ Circle
One list. Every voice in the house.
New releases, bonus chapters, and letters from our authors — sent only when there’s something worth sending.
