About this ebook

Ally Garza and her son return to San Antonio to care for her sick mother. She needs a part-time job but can’t find anything. When Henry offers to hire her at the store, she’s reluctant—she’s hurt because her past attempts to contact him brought no reply. What happened to the love they had shared? Henry Ortiz happily operates his family’s ice cream store and serves customers from a truck at the lake where he met the girl he fell in love with years ago. They spent many summer afternoons enjoying strawberry sundaes together, until she moved away…and never even sent him a postcard. Independence Day fireworks, strawberry sundaes, and a child’s innocence might rekindle the romance.

This well-written story will appeal to readers who appreciate imperfect characters with the courage to take a chance when a second chance at love presents itself. This engaging story will keep readers turning the pages.
