Dear Reader,Gracious me, my beautiful daughter Rocky sure could use my help. I always knew she wasn't much interested in the local boys - but who'd have thought she'd come home with English royalty? Trouble is, Hugh wants to buy some of our folks' land. We don't want to sell, but Rocky's job depends on her closing the deal. And though Hugh's obviously smitten, I'm not sure he's right for my Rocky. Oh, he's classy and handsome - and you should've seen the way he judged pies and fixed stock cars at our Watermelon Festival! - but what do we know about him, really? I know I sound like a nervous mother hen, but after forty happy years with my Elbert, all I want is to see my little girl find the same. Well, time for me to quit chattering and get back to Miss Bray's wet set. Always nice talking to you, and remember: the Cut 'n Curl's got hot rollers, free coffee, and the best gossip in town.See you real soon, Ruby RhodesGoodReads

This book is pretty good. There are a lot of laugh-out-loud moments. I really love the small town and the people in it! It is nice when you can relate to people in books and this book you can. It is heart-melting romance and makes you believe in love.

This one sounds so different and almost outlandish (in a good way). I love comfort reads like this.
