From New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Brown comes a funny heartache of a novel about overcoming the past, confronting the future, and defying all expectations.

Everyone is talking about Jennie Sue Baker and the mess she made of her life in New York. The former high school queen bee - and wealthy darling of Bloom, Texas - has returned home after all these years, riding on a common bus and bearing two bounced alimony checks. In a town that thrives on gossip, Jennie’s fall from grace has shamed her mother, set the town buzzing, and caused old, jealous enemies to whisper in delight. They say she’s taken a job as a housekeeper, gotten a garage apartment, and might be crushing on Rick Lawson, a simple farmer with modest dreams.

As romance starts to bud, Jennie relishes what it means to follow her heart, find real new friends, and finally be herself - regardless of all the lying town chatter. But fate has another twist in store. Rumor has it that Jennie now stands to lose what matters most…unless she can convince Rick of one true thing - and that’s love.

What a wonderful book. I love Nadine and Lettie characters. Jenny Sue shows such strength of character. So many mountains have been overcome in an emotional reunion. Healing and love brought peace to all.

Great book!

The story was one told a million times just a different variation. It was easy listening and I enjoyed it but it was very predictable.
I was disappointed in the narration. The narrator’s voice was irritating when she tried to speak like a man. The story was supposed to be set in West Texas but the wording and accent of the narrator was all wrong for West Texas. I know that because I’ve lived there. It sounded more like Alabama or Georgia; a southern bell type speech and wording.
It’s a typical Carolyn Brown novel. If you like her you’ll probably like this book.

Performance was mediocre

This is pure escapism and fluff. Sometimes you need that! Occasionally it’s fun to read a book that isn’t complicated and doesn’t require much thought. I enjoyed this book for what it is.

Fluffy and fun.

The narration was good and added to the small town feel of the characters. The story was predictable making it one you could multitask to while listening.
