Publisher Description
Sometimes, a second chance comes when you least expect it.
Kate Cormier thought she’d love Sutton Guidry forever. But when one bad decision ended things, she moved on, building a life for herself and her daughter. These days, she hardly thinks about all those dreams. Until Sutton shows up, acting like she never left and looking more gorgeous than ever.
Sutton has spent a decade avoiding her hometown, memories of first love, and the girl who broke her heart. She’s built a career, but the life that goes with it leaves her uninspired. When her father needs surgery, she decides coming home to help him recover is a chance to face those ghosts once and for all. But with so many pieces of her life still there—including Kate—it’s hard not to imagine trying again. Can she find a way to put them together without falling apart all over again?

Returning Home
Sutton returns to her home town in order to take care of her father after knee replacement surgery. Being from a small town in Southern Louisiana, she is sure she will run into her ex-girlfriend, Kate, sooner rather than later. Kate broke her heart 10 years ago, when she got pregnant with her daughter Harper. Kate knows Sutton is back in town and, although she feels she has moved on, she still has vivid memories of the heartache she went through when Sutton left without a backwards glance.
The inevitable happens and after several quasi-awkward encounters, Sutton and Kate make a play at starting fresh, forgiving each other of their past sins and being friends again. The “friendship” part seems to be more of a coverup excuse, as old feelings quickly re-emerge for both and leave them questioning where they stand.
This is just a good book. I really enjoyed it, and especially like the setting of small town Louisiana. It was the typical, if not well-worn, plot of “girl returns to small town and run into the ex”, but that didn’t detract from the overall story for me. The flow was good, the characters are well established, and it was just altogether charming. The one criticism I had was at times the story line seemed to drag slightly. The burn was maybe just a smidge to slow for my taste. Solid 4 stars.
