Narrated by:

Kalan Chapman Lloyd
Heartbreak. Home. Gunshots.
- Former small-town girl turned big-city lawyer Lilly Atkins has tidily checked off her adult to-do list.
- Prestigious law degree
- Flourishing career
- Designer wardrobe
- Well-bred fiancé
In a moment of cliché, her list gets whipped out the window. And run over a few times.
So she heads home to Brooks. Where the creek is cool and the gossip is always hot.
Lilly sets up shop to work off her broken heart. Before the paint can dry, her former flame, Dr. Cash Stetson, shows up requesting representation for his divorce. Two new clients involve a possible negligent homicide and the desecration of human remains, both cases stemming from the local hospital. Run by Cash. When her not so unrequited love's wife turns up dead, Lilly begins to wonder if the former bad boy is up to no good.

For a light mystery/romance, with the charm and manners of the south, it is not a bad start to a short series. The characters, from smothering parents and grandparents to the old high-school friends, are interesting and I look forward to seeing more of their interaction in the books to come. HOWEVER, the author, who is also the narrator of the book, is just so-so. Her voice is annoying and the mispronounced words are really distracting. I have never heard words like vehemency and diplomacy pronounced so weirdly.
Good story, needs a better reader

She knows she's got trouble when her high school on-and-off boyfriend walks in the door, wanting her to handle his divorce. She just doesn't know how much trouble.
Lilly Atkins and her female family and friends take the duties and responsibilities of Southern womanhood very seriously, and that means some entertaining petty revenge when the husband of one of their number is caught cheating on her. It's a bit less clear what it means when Lilly's former boyfriend, now a doctor and running the local hospital, in addition to wanting a divorce, may also be engaged in organ smuggling.
The overall tone of this is light and humorous, and yet it really is, in part, about organ smuggling. That created a certain dissonance for me, that I wasn't happy about. Of course, it's also about small town closeness, the importance of family and friends, and remembering where you came from, and the light humor is far more appropriate for that.
I do rather like Lilly.
Enjoyable, if you're only looking for a light distraction sort of read.
I bought this audiobook.

I read the audio, and it's narrated by the author! Can't ever go wrong with that, and not to worry, the drawl is kind to Northern ears.
Really fun!

Any additional comments?
I was pleasantly surprised by "Home is Where Your Boots Are." I listened to it on my drive to and from work everyday and really enjoyed it. The book kept me on my toes and actually got me excited to get in the car each day (which, if you know me, you know I loathe driving). Aside from being a talented author, I believe Kalan has a real knack for narration! Her different voices and accents kept me entertained and really helped to bring the story to life. You won't regret purchasing this book!Pleasantly Surprised!
