From the Start

Walker Family Series, Book 1

By: Melissa Tagg

Narrated by: Courtney Patterson

Kate Walker used to believe in true love and happily ever after. While her own love life may have left her brokenhearted, it hasn't kept her from churning out made-for-TV romance movie screenplays...until a major career slump and a longing to do something meaningful send her running back to her hometown of Maple Valley.

Permanently sidelined by an injury, former NFL quarterback Colton Greene is temporarily hiding out in a friend's hometown to avoid the media and the reminders of all he's lost. Maple Valley seems like the perfect place to learn how to adjust to normal life. The only trouble is he's never really done normal before.

While Kate plays things safe and Colton is all about big risks and grand gestures, they both get what it's like to desperately need direction in life. An unexpected project gives them both a chance to jumpstart their new lives, but old wounds and new dreams are hard to ignore. Starting over wasn't part of the plan, but could it be the best thing that's ever happened to them?

Absolutely great!

It was engaging, sweet, sizzle but no smut, and it felt very rewarding to see the characters’ development throughout the story. You got to know Maple Valley and the Walker family as people and places you’d like to know.

Great Story!

I love the way Melissa writes, the wit, the lessons to be reflected upon, twists & turns & how lovable her characters are. Enjoyed every moment listening, can’t stop till the end. I also love Courtney’s different voices. So, soothing. Hope to listen to more of your novels.
