Small Town Girl

By: LaVyrle Spencer

Narrated by: Emily Sutton-Smith

New York Times best-selling author LaVyrle Spencer, "famous for her heartrending slices of Americana," is at her best in this sweet, small-town romance about a country music star discovering the true meaning of love....

Eighteen years ago, Tess McPhail left her tiny hometown of Wintergreen, Missouri, for the bright lights of Nashville and never looked back. Now, one of country music's biggest stars, "Mac" is a hardworking woman with little time for a personal life - until her sister insists she come home to help care for their widowed mother.

The welcome Mac receives is less than warm, especially from her former next-door neighbor Kenny Kronek. With a teenage daughter to raise, the handsome divorce refuses to give Mac the time of day. But when Mac discovers that Kenny's daughter is a promising country talent, she begins mentoring the girl in the music of love - and opening her own hardened heart to a man who makes her soul sing....

Loved it!

I enjoyed everything about this book.
Great storytelling with lovely characters.
Heartfelt with brilliant narration

Small town girl turned country singer, great book!

Recommend this book, easy to listen to. It kept me interested with the storyline, but it was easy to figure out where the story was going.

Excellent story read by an excellent narrator

I’m halfway tempted to return to my small hometown and search for my first boyfriend. The rich writing amazed me. Ms. Spencer must have once been in the music business or did some extensive research. The only criticism (and it is very mild criticism) is that the cover page does not illustrate the book at all and that the technology described is outdated.
