Synopsis

Four years ago, Lara Spellmeyer left her small-town life in Perry, Oklahoma, to pursue her dream of starting a cat sweater business. After being swept up in online fame and success, Lara is suddenly back home, dealing with her grandmother's poor health and potentially career-ending negative press.

The only bright spots are Tight Knit, the knitting circle she starts with her friends, and Kerry, the charming young woman her best friend sets her up with.

When Chief Editor Paige Daley asks Lara to appear in her local paper's Hometown Heroes series, it just might restore Lara's image to its former glory. But working with Paige on the story is a battle between Lara's loyalty to her community and a reminder of the suffocating small-town mentality she grew up with.

It doesn't help that Paige is her ex, completely maddening, and can't see eye to eye with Lara on anything. How could this possibly end well?

Contains mature themes.

This is one of those books where you find that no matter how far you’re into the book you still can’t stand one of the MC’s. Lara Spellmeyer made her living knitting cat sweaters. She grew up in the small town of Perry, Oklahoma. She had a hard time because her grandfather, while drunk had an acci......more

Goodreads review by Karen on August 05, 2019

Lara can hold on to a grudge like no one else. I wasn’t too impressed with her but as the author revealed more of her feelings and backstory, she grew on me a bit. She wasn’t all bad; she loved her grandmother for whom she returned to the small town she despises. She managed to keep or make a couple......more

Goodreads review by Cheryl on September 20, 2019

Another difficult book to finish. Actually I wanted to finish it as quickly as I could to find out how this very unpleasant lead character (Lara) was ever going to become an adult. Lara is so wrapped up in self pity throughout the entire book I stopped caring about her. Nothing and no one was good e......more
