"On a Monday night in October, Lassie James sits in Pig Farm Tavern in Chapel Hill when Dr. Holly Pike appears. She electrifies the room, but all Lassie can think about is how she ran out on him when they were going to get married. Just ghosted him all those years ago. Before Lassie can process his old feelings for her, Dr. Pike’s reappearance in his life takes a surprise turn...."
"Really surprised by how much I enjoyed and learned from the author's story! Couldn't help but listen to the music it inspired too. What a talented author and musician!" ~Reviewer
