Publisher's summary

Award-winning author Jennifer Erin Valent follows her unforgettable Fireflies in December with another emotionally charged tale of the South.

Although Jessilyn and Gemma’s friendship has weathered the storms of heartache and prejudice, the turbulent summer of 1936 threatens to shatter the ties that bind. After the hit-and-run death of a little girl, Gemma’s explosive revelation could save an innocent man’s life—but not without jeopardizing the livelihood of Jessilyn’s family.

This book was so simple and yet so rich! The characters were so developed that they seemed real.

I can put this simple book in the top 20 of all my reads. The reader was amazing!

Enjoyed it!

Good sequel... Looking forward to 3rd in series! Takes you back in time, and it is easy to visualize life in the 30's.

Worth a listen!

This was such a good read. The story kept my attention and the narrator has such a soothing voice that I didn’t want to get out the car at times!
