OCRW Anthology - Orange County Romance Writers

HomeOCRW Anthology

Fall in love with El Ocaso—and help nurture the next generation of storytellers.

Seven heartwarming love stories. One historic California rancho. Generations of passion, family, and forever.

Along the sun-warmed coast of California, Rancho El Ocaso has stood for nearly two centuries—its rugged canyons and ocean-kissed arroyos sheltering the dreams of the Galtero family. From rancheros and vintners to entrepreneurs and artists, each generation has fought for love as fiercely as they’ve protected the land they call home.

Now, across the seasons—from Halloween masquerade balls and Día de los Muertos remembrances to New Year’s kisses and holiday miracles—new love stories unfold beneath the California sky.

Inside this closed-door romance collection, you’ll find:

A sheltered rancho daughter drawn to a wandering carpenter
A fiercely independent socialite challenged by a determined composer
A magical proposal planner forced to work with her high school heartbreak
A single mom and a guarded teacher risking a second chance
A journalist facing destiny in a bull arena on Día de los Muertos
A reluctant veterinarian and a grieving daughter on a healing road trip
A curvy heroine discovering her power—and the man who sees her clearly

These romantic and emotionally compelling stories celebrate heritage, family bonds, courage, and the enduring magic of love.

Perfect for readers who enjoy wholesome romance, strong Latina heroines, multigenerational family sagas, and Hallmark-style holiday love stories.
