"A unique take on what it means to go home again." - Kristan Higgins, New York Times bestselling authorThe lake is crystal blue, the hills roll for miles, and breaking news travels via the Methodist prayer chain. But don't let the postcard fool you. Coldwater Cove, Oklahoma, leavens its small-town charm with plenty of Ozark snark. For Lacy Evans, returning to flyover country is the definition of failure. She had everything she wanted - an award-winning design firm, a chic city condo, a handsome, aristocratic almost-fianc. Then her boyfriend ran off with her receptionist and her clients' money. Now she's out of business and crashing on her parents' couch. When she slides into a booth at the Green Apple Grill, she's feeling lower than a worm's belly. But Lacy's old classmate Jacob Tyler is happy to see her. Coldwater's football hero came back from Afghanistan short part of a leg and some peace of mind, but he's counting his blessings, and Lacy could be one of them. Then there's her ex, Daniel, wearing a sheriff's badge and a wedding ring, but looking like young summer love. And a host of unlikely serendipities: the selfless do-gooders who sneak around taming curmudgeons and constructing second chances. The Fighting Marmots. The sprawling, take-no-prisoners Bugtussle clan. Lacy thought she knew her hometown, and herself. She just wanted to get on her feet and keep running. But the longer she stays, the more she finds to change her mind. . . "Readers of sweet romance will fall in love with Coldwater Cove. Lexi Eddings's talent shines in this edgy, fresh story." - Kristan Higgins, New York Times bestselling author
About the Author
Lexi Eddings is...darn, I'm having writer's block. Telling someone else's story is child's play. Telling my own...well, let's just say I'm a college grad, a wife, a mother and life is generally good. In my world, all the angst and drama (and most of the mayhem!) tends to happen on the pages of my manuscripts.When I was a kid, I used to sneak books into bed to read by the slice of light streaming in from the door crack. Fictional people were my friends. I was entranced by Jo March and Anne (with an e!) Shirley--strong, smart heroines who made the most of their worlds. Now that's the sort of heroine I write, like Lacy Evans in The Coldwater Warm Hearts Club, my first small town story with a little romance, a little laughter and a few tears. Hope you enjoy my brand of Ozark snark.Some of my favorite things:1. My husband2. My kids3. My dogs (see Found Pets!) 4. My travel (Yep, that's me in Bermuda.) 5. My Kindle Fire (no more door crack light for me!) 6. The magic that happens when I wonder "What if..."Hope you'll take a minute to visit my website.
