By Elizabeth Bromke

Book Overview

To move forward, she might have to take a step back.

Divorced empty-nester Becky Linden wants a fresh start. After two decades away, she returns to her hometown to find herself. What she discovers instead is the long-abandoned schoolhouse where she had her first kiss as a teenager. Others might see an eyesore, but Becky sees the neglected building as a charming business opportunity and... her future. However, she can't do it on her own. The one man who can help her is the last one she ever thought she'd ever ask-her ex-boyfriend.

Zack Durbin works for the school district that owns the run-down building, and he agrees with locals: the schoolhouse is a problem. What's more? It's his job to solve the problem. Then Zack's old high school sweetheart shows up with a dream to open a bookshop and reboot her life. Is Zack willing to sacrifice his career for the only woman he's ever loved? Or will the past haunt him forever?

Enjoyable Reading

Becky comes home to Hickory Grove after divorcing her husband, and raising her son. She has great hopes for an old, abandoned schoolhouse that meant the world to her. She runs into her first love, Zack. What she hoped would be an easy way of life, now becomes stressful and sometimes heartbreaking. There were times when I became mad at Becky, but maybe that's the sign of a great author. The characters become so real to the reader. I would recommend this book. Can't wait to read the whole series.
