Items related to Small Town Girl
The new contemporary love story by the well-loved author of November of the Heart and Home Song.
Tess McPhail, known as Mac, has hit the heights of fame as a popular singer and song-writer. She is a millionaire several times over and runs her own business empire. But she has never found time for a steady relationship.
Now she has come home, to Wintergreen, Missouri, to look after her convalescent mother, summoned by her two sisters who feel they have borne their share of the burdens. Struggling to adjust to life in this small town backwater, she finds herself running up against her mother’s next-door neighbour, Kenny Kronek.
Kenny was the skinny kid she spurned at school but now, divorced with a daughter, he’s almost a member of the McPhail family. Tess finds they still irritate one another in the way they always did. But there is something else there – an attraction that eventually turns to passion. And with love comes the need to make life-altering decisions.

SHE EMBRACED FAME BUT FLED FROM LOVE...
Eighteen years ago, young Tess McPhail left tiny Wintergreen, Missouri, for Nashville and never looked back. Now one of country music’s biggest stars, ‘Mac’ McPhail’s career is her life and, at thirty five, she has no time for love or family – until her sisters insist she come home to help care for their widowed mother.
Mac is unprepared for her reception in Wintergreen. After almost two decades of public adoration, she is suddenly a non person – insulted by her jealous sister, enraged by her intractable mother, ignored by Kenny Kronek, the next door neighbour she taunted mercilessly all through high school. A handsome divorce who dotes on his teenage daughter, Casey, Kenny refuses to give Mac the time of day.
But Casey is a promising singer, and when Mac assumes the role of mentor, the feigned indifference between Mac and Kenny turns to playful bickering, then passion. It is only when Mac returns to Nashville that what seemed possible in Wintergreen starts to look like a naive fantasy. Is there room for caring and commitment in her glamorous – or is Mac destined always to be alone?
