My reputation at home is a laugh so I go to the place where Id always been the happiest : Magnolia Grove with my Mimi and Pawpaw
Little did I know that news of my brief and failed marriage had made it there. I venture to a nearby town for one night of peace. I thought I was emotionally unavailable until a chance encounter with a handsome stranger gives me a night of freedom and fun. No exchanging of names or personal information, and no intention of ever seeing one another again. No matter how incredible our chemistry may be.
But I do see him again—at my Mimis church.
My stranger is the towns new preacher.
