“Failure” has never been a part of Norah Burke’s vocabulary, so it comes as quite a shock when she gets fired from the marketing firm where she's built her career after threatening to blow the whistle on some shady business practices. Licking her wounds, she heads South for a little home-grown comfort.

Cam Crawford is a man who values tradition, preservation, and the love of a good woman. He’s not about to let a big box warehouse store capitalize on his hometown's economic downturn. He'll raise hell if he has to in order to stop them from destroying what he holds dear.

This unlikely pair just might be the perfect allies—in war and out. But will this city girl's bigger-picture perspective go with this small-town boy's "keep it as it is" attitude? And even if they can send the suits packing, can she really give up her corner office and power lunches for the corner booth at the local diner?

Wishful Romance

TUCKER WAS NOT A man accustomed to sitting around doing nothing. Yet for two days, he'd done exactly that. Well, not nothing. He'd reviewed every moment of the past few weeks with Corinne, analyzing and rehashing and wondering what he was missing. Other than confirming she'd gotten home okay, she wasn't answering his texts or calls. 


He wanted an explanation. Needed one. Because this whole silent treatment was far too redolent of his ex-wife. Except Laura hadn't been in tears when she walked out of his life. The fact that those tears made him feel better made him a sick son of a bitch. But surely tears meant she hadn't wanted to walk, right? She hadn't wanted to walk that day at Hope Springs. That meant something else was at play. There had to be because Tucker couldn't think of a damned thing he'd done wrong. Then again, he hadn't been able to think of a thing he'd done wrong in his marriage either and Laura had still left him.
