Summary

Jaxon Lavigne left the small town of Chackbay, Louisiana, to escape disapproving parents and has never looked back. She’s now a popular English lit professor. Life is good. Really. The only problem is the invite in her mailbox. Who in their right mind has a 15-year high school reunion?

Iris Long’s days are predictable. She did the safe thing and married the high school quarterback. While her life isn’t a grand love affair, it’s comfortable, and as the secretary at the local high school, she can see her daughter and son throughout the day. Her family is great, but Iris longs for the one person she can’t have.

Jaxon comes back to town amid gossip that started 15 years earlier and never really died down. After crushing on Iris in high school, seeing her again is a welcome surprise. But it’s Iris’ daughter, Sean, whose dark hair, green eyes, and brilliant mind are startlingly like Jaxon’s own that exposes scars from small-town secrets. Jaxon has been kept in the dark by those she loves most, including Iris. But when the truth is finally revealed, will she leave for good?

Very good 2nd listen as fresh as the first time

My first book by Ali Vali and excellent performance by Lula Larkin who brought the story to life very good voice and good characterization.

Really got into this story and had to finish it in one sitting will look forward to more by this author.

A different kind of happy ever after

What a wonderful change of pace, Ali Vali brings us a delightful story of a woman facing her past head-on after a nudge or two. Excellent narration.
