Something about September - by Julia McKay (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Cozy up with your pumpkin spiced latte and a slice of apple pie, because it's time to fall in love in Bramley Hollow...

A fall-inspired second-chance romance about a woman who returns home after inheriting her grandmother's diner, only to discover the contractor she must hire was her high school crush.

Sweater weather is better together.

Rebecca Macintosh has always felt that there's just something about September--nostalgia, crisp mornings, and possibility. But not this year. Town-spirit tyrant and unofficial-Mayor, Crispin, has summoned her home: Rebecca has thirty days to fix up her late grandmother's diner or face the consequences. And the only contractor in town? Cort Adams. The man who rejected her one year ago. He's somehow even better looking as a single dad than when he was the high school football star she once tutored. She'd been hoping to avoid him forever.

As the golden leaves start to fall, Rebecca may find that there's more to her hometown--and to Cort--than she'd realized, and that the dreams she's been chasing might have been the wrong ones. Could a spark kindle hot enough in the cool autumn air to call Rebecca home for good?
