With one twang of a banjo string, Summer
Leigh Johnson's tidy, organized life in Barrow,
Alaska is jolted back to the Ozarks. When her
coon-hunting, tobacco-chewing, bull-riding,
redneck ex-husband asks for her help, she has
two options: turn her back on him like he did to
her eleven years ago, or help. Burdened with
the curse of every southern woman--What
Would Mama Do?--she goes to his aid. And what
does she find? The man she fell in love with all
those years ago and a second chance at love
and family. The last time she gave her heart to
Dwight, he flicked it aside like an empty can of
Skoal. This time he's cradling it as gently as he
would a speckled pup. But, it will take a lot more
than Dwight's southern charm and good looks to
convince Summer Leigh to stay.
