Hometown Girl

By: Courtney Walsh

Narrated by: Teri Clark Linden

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Courtney Walsh returns with a hopeful and emotional new book about seizing second chances, finding yourself, and forging your own path.

Beth Whitaker isn't supposed to be a small-town girl. She's always dreamed of leaving Willow Grove, Illinois, for the big city, but she feels trapped, struggling to make up for a mistake that's haunted her for years. Just when Beth is finally ready to break free, her sister impulsively buys a beloved but run-down farm on the outskirts of town, and she begs Beth to help with the restoration. Reluctantly, Beth agrees to help - and puts her own dreams on hold once again.

Drew Barlow hasn't been back to Fairwind Farm since he was a boy, and he's spent all these years trying to outrun the pain of a past he thought he buried long ago. When he learns that the owner has passed away, his heart knows it's finally time to do the right thing. Returning to Willow Grove, Drew revisits the old farm, where he attempts to piece together his memories and the puzzle of the crime he witnessed so long ago.

Both on a journey to find peace, Beth and Drew are surprised when they begin to experience a restoration of their own. But when long-buried secrets break through the soil and the truth unfurls, will it threaten their budding relationship - and the very future of the farm?

Great book!

I love Courtney Walsh’s character and this story surprised me. It was so good!! I laughed and cried with the characters.

Great story

Love this story and the mystery and depth to it. I was sad for it to be over.

I love Courtney Walsh!

Excellent writing, nothing vulgar or offensive. Christian without being sappy. Highly recommend! Proof that fiction can be great without explicit sexual content and filthy language!

forgive oneselif

I enjoyed this story about an overachiever who finally realizes that sometimes "mistakes" can be used for the good of others and self. By giving of herself, she was able to find the forgiveness needed to go forward with her life.

I both read and listened and enjoyed both ways.

Fun mystery/romance

Loved this sweet story! A fun mystery in a small town with a great love story.
