Kees ParkMeet the Author Book Club: Third + Ten
This book club centers on Marie Veillon’s debut, Third and Ten, the first entry in the Camellia Rom-Com series. Set in Camellia, Louisiana, the story follows Tenley Robin, a career-focused midwife who unexpectedly becomes guardian to her teenage nephew, and JD Bourgeois, a devoted football coach who hopes to find a place in their lives. As foster parenting reshapes Tenley’s priorities, she tightens her no-dating rules while JD does his best, sometimes awkwardly, to support both aunt and nephew. Their growing connection unfolds alongside family responsibilities and custody proceedings, raising the question of whether caution will prevail or a leap of faith will. The novel is described as a minty rom-com with Cajun and Catholic influences and a mostly closed-door approach to intimacy. Readers can expect playful innuendo, discussions of sex and chastity, fertility awareness and natural family planning, semi-steamy moments that fade to black, implied nudity, crude humor, and mild language, with explicit scenes left off the page and a tone comparable to PG-13. Content notes include pregnancy and childbirth, postpartum health, body image concerns, alcoholism, grief and loss, cancer, adoption, legal guardianship and child custody, and parental abandonment, with an assured happily ever after.

Discussion may explore the opening blunder that earns an achievement for failing a quest in under five minutes, the need to team up with low level crawlers sharing the bubble, and the lingering question of who can be trusted when survival depends on uneasy alliances.
