November Homecoming by Bokerah Brumley

Rebecca returns to Yearly and hires a local contractor, sight unseen, but she doesn’t expect to come face to face with the ex she left behind... Rebecca Martin, a high-powered executive chef, doesn’t want her widowed mom to lose their family home, and she thinks she's found the perfect way through: Open a new restaurant in her home town. That way, Rebecca will achieve her lifelong dream of running her own restaurant and her mom will have a long-term income without leaving the town she loves. It's the perfect scheme. Two birds, one stone, and the best laid plan. Then Rebecca meets the contractor... her now-successful ex. ◆ Johnny Cash Williams is the local do-it-all man. He hangs drywall and nails down roofing shingles while sporting a bushy beard and a million-dollar grin. Cash may know how to rewire a house, but he doesn’t know how to handle the sparks when his old flame returns to his hometown of Yearly. The town’s not big enough for the two of them. Yet, for the sake of both their families, the duo must learn to make the renovations work, and maybe their wounded hearts will find love in the process. November Homecoming has a touch of laughter, a few tears, and a lot of heart in a small-town, second-chance romance. Each book in The Yearly, Texas Romance Series is a standalone romance. They can be read in any order.
