About this ebook

She's divorced and building a new life. He's happy living as a responsibility-free nomad. When forced to work together to save a failing music store, will this lonely pair find what they are looking for? Or instead, will they find what they need?

Nora’s life is out of sync since her recent divorce, but an urgent call for help draws her to Cataluma, California, to help her uncle Jock’s struggling music store.

There, fate reunites her with Jock’s stepson Gene, whom she hasn’t seen in twenty-five years, since she was a gangly fifteen-year-old trying in vain to get twenty-year-old Gene to notice her.  

Well, he’s noticing her now, and Nora’s rediscovering old feelings she can’t ignore.

As they work together to keep the store running, their relationship grows, but they must face several challenges along the way, including Jock’s health problems and the store’s financial woes.

In this heartwarming tale of love, family, and second chances, Nora and Eugene prove that sometimes, if you stop chasing love and happiness, you will find it where you least expect it…standing right in front of you.

Come to Cataluma for an uplifting story of friendship, love and second chances, and leave with a smile.
