About this ebook series

Annie Fischer’s come back to Medicine Creek, Oklahoma, to sell her childhood home.

She doesn’t plan to spend any more time than necessary in the place where her memories are all sad. Or are they? Suddenly—with the help of Mike Kirkpatrick, Realtor, pastor and father of five—she’s uncovering secrets about her family and discovering one very good reason to stay in Medicine Creek.

Standing on Pecan Street before the weathered three-story house, she expects only yellowed wallpaper and bitter reminders of the stepmother who criticized her every move. She is eager to pack up the clutter, sign the listing agreement, and return to her demanding career as an attorney in Washington, D.C. The former high school bad boy she once watched from afar is now a hardworking single father juggling five spirited kids and a chaotic household. She never imagined that the key to her mother’s heritage lay waiting in an attic box, or that the quiet man helping her sort through the past could offer the warmth and belonging she has spent a lifetime seeking.

Can a woman determined to leave her past behind find her future in the heart of the Arbuckle Mountains?
