Book 6

She thought she was coming home for a couple of weeks. She never expected Laurel Springs to remind her where she belonged.
Award-winning travel writer Melinda Crofton expected Laurel Springs to look exactly as she left it. She never expected one of the first familiar faces she saw at the town’s annual Harvest Festival to belong to Steven Dawson, the high school sweetheart she spent years trying to forget.
Steven isn’t the carefree boy she remembers. He’s a devoted single father raising his eight-year-old daughter after losing his wife four years earlier. And before the weekend is over, Lucy has decided Melinda belongs in their lives.
Melinda is only in town to help her grandmother move and plans to head back to the life she’s built the moment her Grand is moved in. Between lending a hand with her grandmother’s move, reconnecting with old friends, and rediscovering the man she left behind, leaving Laurel Springs proves far more complicated than she imagined.
Sometimes the road home leads to the love that never truly let you go.
A delightful small-town romance filled with the warmth of Autumn and ending with Christmas cheer, matchmaking neighbors, community charm, and a slow-burn, second chance love story worth celebrating. No spice or profanity, Kisses Only.
