Lara Haley has it all. At least that's what everyone tells her. Husband (estranged). Home (her mother-in-law's). Family (smothering). When she finds her estranged husband's dead body behind her Buick along with her prize-winning camellia he was trying to steal in the - ahem - dead of night, Lara decides it's time for a change. Will Kenner left town in the back of the sheriff's car and never looked back. He left behind his family (estranged), the town (smothering) and most of all, Lara (sexy). Now he's back, intent on saving the struggling town and his family. And this time, nothing will keep him from pursuing Lara. Passion overtakes common sense and sensibility for our two lovers. A hilariously uncomfortable funeral, a protest that pits neighbor against neighbor, and a few secrets are all that keep Will and Lara from finding their happily ever after. Piece of cake.

For Riley Kenner, the small town of Belle Terre Louisiana is going to be her second chance at home and family. She's ready to put down some roots after a life on the road and has found a house to call her own and one of her long-lost brothers. Then her brother disappears - along with her money - and disaster begins to follow Riley through the streets of town making her an outsider before she can even take off her toolbelt. Jackson Guidry had everything anyone could ever want until his family was willing to walk him down the aisle and trade his future for their own. He's been on his own since then until he discovers people who look to him for the answers and a community worth fighting for. As her dreams of home and family go up in smoke (literally), Riley is ready to call it quits. Jackson may only be the stand-in sheriff, but he's determined to help Riley uncover the truth behind her missing money and missing brother and find a place to call her own. Can two people looking for a second chance find an opportunity for their happily ever after?
