Now, she’s a big Hollywood star I see on my television screen every week. I’m just a boring tech nerd turned billionaire. Our lives could not be further apart, especially since I’ve returned to my family’s Montana ranch to run my charity work from home. But then, Annie shows up, broken and in need of a good hiding place. Will the decades since our last tearful goodbye prove too much for a second chance? Annie Atticus Moon was the finest boy I’d ever known. Although the years had distanced us, I never stopped thinking about him or wishing we could have remained close. Was it simply time and distance that separated us? Or had the selfish choice my mother made when we were children ruined any chance of a relationship with Atticus or his family? I’d not stopped running from the past long enough to know the answer. However, when the unthinkable happens and I’m left alone, publicly humiliated and in possible danger, I head to Bluefern and Atticus. Will he take me in after all this time and be the friend I so desperately need or will he disappoint me like all the other men in my life? Opposites attract in this sweet, emotional family saga starring the Moon brothers. Grab it today for a cozy, happy-ever-after by USA Today bestselling author Tess Thompson.
