Seriously? Return to Welcome? She'd rather chew rusty nails...
Mercy Talbot left Welcome on a high--a golden-girl beauty queen who stepped confidently into a bright future. But that was a long time ago and that girl is far, far, away. She's failed in her career, failed in love, failed her family--and she's dead broke.
All Mercy wants is to forget her failures and move forward into a new life with a fresh set of dreams--and get out of Welcome before it sucks her back in for good. But one look at her precocious niece who desperately needs her sends Mercy on a journey into her past that will change everyone's future.
Clay Foster used to be Welcome's bad boy, but marriage and his daughter Dilly have transformed him into a devoted father. Widowed now and struggling to be the daddy his child needs, Clay fights his sudden and unexpected attraction to Mercy. But, tempted as he is, Clay can't afford to be taken in by a golden girl. Beautiful, talented women like Mercy always have an exit strategy and when her career beckons, Clay knows she'll leave him and Dilly flat. His daughter has already lost her mother and he won't put his little girl's heart on the line.
In a town full of second chances will Clay believe that Mercy has found there's no place like home?
