Love Finds a Home #4

Featured selection for Literary Guild, Doubleday, and Rhapsody Book Clubs in 2006
Juggling four children, livestock, and a rundown farmhouse in the Ozarks, widowed and shy Patsy Lee O'Malley barely has time for sleep, let alone indulgence in dreams. When a mishap knocks her off her feet at an O'Malley wedding, her famous brother-in-law's bandmate, Zeke Townley, comes to her rescue.
The roar of his fans' applause long stilled, the retired musician enjoys a sophisticated life at his San Francisco townhome. Accepting a wine-soaked dare, he's aghast to find himself committed to sojourn amid Patsy Lee's rambunctious family in rural Missouri—until he's swept up in the children's problems and swept off his own feet by a modest country woman, a woman who doesn't want him.

What the critics said…
"…breaks out of the traditional ‘romance mold'… a delightfully refreshing novel."
—Jennifer Harden, The Romance Readers Connection, July 2006
"Ms. Corgiat has worked her writing magic again and the return visit to Cordelia is as warm and friendly as a visit with old friends. At the same time, this author is not afraid to take an unflinching look at issues that face us all whether we live in a small town or a big city."
—Roberta, A Romance Review, 2006
"A thoroughly lovely book."
—Samantha Andrick, Fresh Fiction

—Dina Smith, Romance Junkies
