A POIGNANT JOURNEY OF TWO LOVERS DESTINED TO BE TOGETHER.   "This story takes you on an emotional journey—filled with wounds from the past!" 5 star review   "Emotional, engaging, satisfying, must read!" 5 star review   I'm home and hearth. He's a superstar baseball player. I've always loved Sam Parker. He was warm sunshine, laughter and passion, and in his arms, I dreamed of white picket fences and happily-ever-afters. But our dreams didn't jive. Sam had aspirations beyond running a farm. I always blamed him for leaving me, but the truth is, I was terrified of being the fish out of water if I followed him.   Sam's dad, Joe Parker, became my surrogate father in the decade since Sam left Hope's Crossing. Joe's the only family I have, and I just learned he has leukemia. I'll do whatever it takes to save him.   My work is cut out for me because these two men are as hardheaded as a pair of Billy goats. They can't agree on anything and haven't talked since Sam chose baseball over farming. Sam's retired, so there's no reason he can't come home. But getting these two stubborn men to find common ground might be my biggest challenge yet. I've got to save Joe, even if it means facing Sam again after all this time.   Get your copy today because when opposites attract sparks fly!

I'm the love he left behind.   After our parents died in a car accident, my sisters and I lived with Uncle Cornelius, a stuffy Brit with a heart as big as the state of Indiana. Cornelius owned the local movie theater in Hope's Crossing, and I loved every inch of the place almost as much as I secretly loved Ben Valentine. But Ben was out of my league, never seeing me as anything but his high school tutor. When he left for college, he took my heart with him.   Four years later, with my business degree in hand, I wanted to work with Uncle Cornelius. But nothing went as planned, and I struck out on my own in Paradise Falls where I bought a drive-in theater I could run my way. My life is on track until Uncle Cornelius has a heart attack. With regret burning deep inside, I rush home to set things right with him. It's all I can think about, until I discover the bad boy of baseball is living next door. Then all I see is heartbreak in my future because there's nothing to keep me in Hope's Crossing—nothing except the man of my dreams.   Get your copy today because your first love is the one you never forget.   This is book three in The Murphy Clan—Return to Hope's Crossing series.
