Home Town Rebel

Determined to undo the damage her ex has caused in the small Carolina town she calls home, Amy Warren wants to save the local mill. Her plan shatters when Jean-Jacques St. Etienne arrives with loads of cash, charisma, and expertise, with every intention of buying the mill for its designs and then abandoning the community.

A European playboy who lives a charmed life, Jacques has no interest in mills, communities, or anything except the designs that will keep him occupied so he needn’t recall the tragedy of the one moment in his life when his luck deserted him.

As mild-mannered Amy and dashing Jacques play a cat-and-mouse game that can only end in heartbreak, their affair affects the existence of an entire town.
