Where does a woman with the most famous face in America go to hide? Home, of course. From Hollywood, Texas to Hollywood, California and back again…can a small town veterinarian and a famous hometown movie star rekindle their lost love?

MY THOUGHTS

When the opening paragraphs revealed a well-known actress on the porch of her first love in the tiny Texas hometown that shares only a name with her California life, I knew I was in for a lively and captivating read and Kathleen Y'Barbo did not disappoint. Since this is a novella, the story moves quickly but Y'Barbo manages to pack a lot in this tiny tome. Endearing characters, a whisper of danger, and a charming romance make this an enjoyable addition to your springtime reading list.
