Revisit these two Small Town Uplifting Romance Books featuring homecoming romances, second chances, family matchmaking, and emotional connection. From #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. Previously published as Valerie and Stephanie.
The Unexpected Match
When Valerie's father suffers a heart attack, she rushes from her top executive office in the big city to Oregon to be by his side with her two younger sisters. But after meeting his heart surgeon, Colby Winston, she is overwhelmed by her feelings of attraction toward him. She's a take-charge businesswoman; he's a renowned surgeon who loves traditional small-town living-and this is no time to fall in love with her complete opposite. But her father's matchmaking efforts have Valerie and Colby questioning the possibility of opening their hearts for a different future, one they can build together.
Come Back to Me
Stephanie Bloomfield returns home to Orchard Valley, Oregon; her father has suffered a heart attack, and all three sisters are gathering at his side. But as her father begins to recover, Steffie has to face a ghost from her past.
Three years earlier, she'd fled Orchard Valley because of her humiliating rejection by the man she loved, local journalist Charles Tomaselli. Reuniting means reliving past battles, but with the matchmaking attempts of Steffie's dad, it might also mean reliving old feelings. Only this time love might give her a reason to stay.
