A cozy, small town romance with a heroine who faces some big issues: returning home, bullying from a high school nemesis, and racism. A little heat, a lot of family drama. 

You’ll love it if you’re in the mood for:

• A sweet love story 
• Return to a small town
• First-generation family
• restaurant/cooking 
• North Carolina
• A little heat, a lot of emotion
