Small Town Secrets

"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 I want to say the scheme is ridiculous, totally outdated, but I'm carrying everything I own in my canvas backpack and the greyhound I stepped off this morning is long gone.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.
