Maggie's brownstone on West 69th street near Central Park West is a long way from Rainbow's End, Texas in ways even more significant than geography. She only returns home for brief visits, devoting her time to her literary agency and a string of pleasant, if emotionally unattached, men. Then her mother's stroke compels a longer return home and suddenly Maggie discovers a secret longing for things she has never had, and fierce desire for the one man who got away who really mattered.Sheriff Zach Tate refused to leave the small town of his youth even for the love of his life. Twenty years quickly dissolve when he sees Maggie again, and his desire for her burns as strongly as when they were teens. He had planned to lay old ghosts to rest; instead, he is flooded with a need for her. Unfortunately, she has a comfortable life and successful career in New York that she will return to; conversely, he is the father of three teens and strongly rooted in Rainbow's End. The distances between them feel insurmountable.In book three of the Callahans & Kin series, author Patricia Kay pens a moving romance with JUST A SMALL-TOWN GIRL. Three delightful teens make this tale especially endearing with a conclusion that will delight romance lovers. Maggie and Zach and likewise memorable, as they are near forty, with the careers and maturity that makes falling in love a rather complicated addition to their lives. Indeed, Kay has a gift for capturing the very essence of romance, lending her characters the strength of passion and depths of emotion that makes her novel memorable. Very highly recommended.
