With the gossip mill a-buzzin,’ how is she supposed to keep her cool amid all
the southern Georgia heat?
In This Moment
Heart of Vallantine Book 1
by Kelly Moran
Genre: Small Town Romantic Comedy
Southern drawls & y'alls. Come fall in love in the Heart of
Vallantine!
It’s been ten years since Rebecca
Moore left idyllic small town Vallantine for the big city and even
bigger dreams of becoming an award-winning journalist. Her career a
puff of smoke in her wake, she returns home for her grandmother’s
funeral, grieving and with her life at a standstill. But her two
childhood besties have a plan to restore the historic library to its
former glory and convert part of it into a bookstore. It seems like
so long ago residents had named their trio the “Bookish Belles,”
yet nothing cures troubles like good friends and a purpose. The
problem is, she needs a job until the renovations are complete, and
just her luck, the new editor of the local newspaper is a Yankee.
He’s also sullen, sanctimonious, and sexy. And with the gossip mill
a-buzzin,’ how is she supposed to keep her cool amid all the
southern Georgia heat?
Graham Roberts hasn’t exactly
acclimated to the south. Yet, he moved for a purpose, and there’s
no reason why he can’t help an old friend with a favor by hiring
someone who is more than qualified. They could work side-by-side
without complications. Right? Wrong. Bless her heart, Rebecca is the
feistiest female on two legs with an innate ability to crawl under
his skin faster than a hot knife through butter. Not to mention,
she’s gorgeous as all get-out. Beneath her sass, though, is a girl
who’s striving for acceptance and love. He’s just not certain
he’s the right man. Plus, she’s given no promises to stick
around. Worse, he’s starting to think falling for her may not even
be a conscious choice. The heart wants what the heart wants. And
between all of Vallantine gunning for their ever-after and Rebecca’s
alluring charm sucking him in—again…and again—what chance does
a guy stand?
Fans of Sweet Magnolias by Sherryl Woods and Virgin River by Robyn Carr will enjoy Heart of Vallantine.
