Publisher's Synopsis
Love checks in--even if it's an unwelcome guest--in this delightful smalltown romance from USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Shirk...
It was supposed to be L.A. attorney Loni Wingate's perfect day. Instead, she got only chaos and heartbreak. Her fiancé stole her promotion and ended their engagement, leaving her career and her future dangling by a thread. Then when Loni tries to go to her safe place, her family's quaint North Carolina resort, she finds it's up for sale. But Loni didn't get to where she is without a fight. So if a developer is coming by to assess the property, the place she feels most connected to her long-gone Mama...well, Loni and her sisters will serve up a taste of Southern hospitality he'll never forget. Ian Hollowell hasn't experienced "Southern hospitality" firsthand, but he's pretty sure this is not it. Between the storage room accommodation, the all-sugar sweet tea, and a lethally hot pepper omelet, he's getting the sense his welcome is anything but. Still, he didn't get his ruthless reputation by quitting when the game gets interesting. And Loni is one adversary Ian can't resist... especially when family revelations start pushing Loni to question her loyalties. Now a round of "keep your enemies close" might be flipped on its head in bestselling author Jennifer Shirk's sparkling and stirring story about reconsidering the past in order to shape the future. Because sometimes it takes one last resort to find the place--and people--that truly feel like home.
