"Young women needed for the Fortune Springs Town Improvement Initiative. One year's room and board provided."I should have known it was too good to be true when I first saw the ad. It turns out that Fortune Springs, Colorado isn't just a one-horse town, it's a two-woman one, and this is their attempt to keep the community alive. I want to say the scheme is ridiculous, totally outdated, but I'm carrying everything I own in my canvas backpack and the greyhound I stepped off this morning is long gone. If this is my chance at a fresh start, I'd better grab it with both hands.I know I should feel guilty about pretending to be a lonely heart willing to help repopulate this rural logging town, but all I feel is relief at having escaped the apartment in Savannah. And after all, what's one more secret to add to the pile? I only hope I've hidden my tracks well enough, and that the kind Fortune Springs locals who've opened their doors to me will never find out what made me run away in the first place...An emotional, gripping story full of family drama. Fans of Carolyn Brown, Robyn Carr and Debbie Macomber will be hooked.Readers love Alys Murray:¿¿¿¿¿ "Fabulous... Will remain with you long after you've reached the last page... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED."

Rose Anderson is done with being known as ';the nice one' in the small town where she lives. She's done with playing third, fifth, seventh wheel at loud gatherings on her family's flower farm. And most of all, she is done with the pitying looks she gets about her single status from the way-too-interested townsfolk. Busy with her flower-arranging business, Rose has no time for a man, thank you very much. And it has nothing to do with the scars she still nurses from her last breakup. So when she meets Cole McKittrick, Rose gets an idea. But first she needs to get beneath his aloof exterior and convince him to agree Cole McKittrick is trying to keep calm. So what if he quit a steady job for a shot at his dream, was dumped and his move to Yokel County, California is bringing back childhood memories he'd rather forget? It's all about perspective. He doesn't want to get any more involved in this town than he has to be, so his first instinct is to push Rose Anderson and her intriguing idea away. But the woman won't get gone, and then she makes him an offer he can't refuse. The two are soon neck deep in deception, playing up a starry-eyed romance in public while they clash wits and wills in private. But Cole has been hiding a big secret from Rose about his past. And when Rose finds out could it spell the end for their picture-perfect romance, or will she realize that he has taken over not just her home, but also her heart? A fun, charming romance about family and finding the one, perfect for fans of Robyn Carr, Debbie Macomber and Carolyn Brown.
