Vegas
showgirl meets hometown bad boy…
Josie Day’s
life changes forever the night she saves her bosses life, when she
successfully
uses the Heimlich to save her life from an olive. Tallulah
Carlyle’s gratuitous thank you is
offering Josie an estate. While Josie is
grateful and pleased, she’s also hesitant since the estate is in the
very
hometown she once ran away from. But feeling proud that she will have
something
to show off when she returns Josie heads back to Donovan’s Corner,
ready to
show off her new, wealthy possession.
But when
Josie returns to her old hometown, she finds that the estates is a
decrepit,
falling down home that needs more TLC than she might have to give. To
make
matters worse, as she returns “home”, Josie is treated like a social
outcast as
the town - including her father, think her job in Las Vegas has been as a stripper!
Determined
not to run from her dream of making the estate into a dance studio,
Josie
buckles up and prepares for the ride of her life in her old hometown.
But Josie
Day never expected Luke Donovan, whom she believes to be a handyman.
However,
Luke is the actual owner in his mind that was once promised the same
property
by his Aunt Tallulah…
Lisa
Plumley pens another endearing and fun-filled contemporary romance with
Josie Day is Coming Home. Ms. Plumley proves that with conviction, a
strong-will, as well as being armed with a dream, you can go home again. Josie Day is a charming woman who finally
digs in, more determined than ever to obtain her dream. Luke is a bad
boy who
is deliciously good and easy to fall in love with. There is chemistry
immediately between these characters that have readers rooting for them
to come
together. Aunt Tallulah is also a fun addition to this story.
Josie Day is Coming Home is a fun, romantic romp
that’ll
delight fans of Lisa Plumley and is guaranteed to bring her new ones. I
love a
great contemporary romance, and with the addition of light comedy, I am
doubly
impressed. The latest from this author has it all for readers who enjoy
light-hearted romance, with a great set of characters to enjoy. Grab a
