Book Overview

A Publishers Weekly Bestseller

From Jodi Thomas, New York Times bestselling author of Mornings on Main and Indigo Lake, comes this heartwarming new novel set in Honey Creek, Texas--a small town where family bonds and legends run deep, and friendship and love are always close at hand . . .

Piper Jane Mackenzie, mayor of Honey Creek, won't let a major scandal rip her quirky hometown apart, or jeopardize her dream of one day running for higher office. So she's willing to welcome undercover detective Colby McBride, hired to help solve the mystery behind her wannabe fianc 's disappearance. Colby's cover? That he is an old boyfriend now begging Piper for a second chance--always when there are plenty of townsfolk around to witness his shenanigans.

Piper hardly knows whether to laugh or cry, especially when she finds herself drawn to the handsome rascal. He's not the only newcomer she has to deal with. There's a new interim preacher in town, Sam Cassidy. Drifting from one assignment to another since his one love died, Sam isn't sure he's the right fit for Honey Creek. But as Piper knows, this is a place chock-full of surprises. And if she can keep her town--and her heart--from going completely off the rails, there may be a sweet, unexpected future in store . . .

"Compelling and beautifully written."

Cute story

I enjoyed reading this. It was fun to learn about all the residents and visitors to Honey Creek.

Totally Fun to Read!

This book is such a cute romance with a dash of mystery thrown in. I especially loved it because it is set in Texas where I live! The book has four different perspectives and that kept things interesting. I liked Piper's and Colby's sections the best but Sam Cassidy and Pecos Smith were fun to read about too. I enjoyed this book quite a lot. The writing style was smooth and made for quick reading. The descriptions were vivid and I could see them easily. The characters were easy to believe that they were real and they were likable humans too. I dived into this book and it kept me hooked until the last page. The ending was really sweet and left me satisfied. I eagerly await the second book to continue the story!
