Women's Fiction Contemporary
In this spectacular new novel, Barbara O’Neal delivers a
generous helping of the best in life–family, food, and
love–in the story of a woman’s search for the one thing
worth more than anything. At thirty-seven, Tessa Harlow is still working her way
down her list of goals to “fall in love and have a
family.” A self-described rolling stone, Tessa leads
hiking tours for adventurous vacationers–it’s a job that’s
taken her around the world but never a step closer to
home. Then a freak injury during a trip already marred by
tragedy forces her to begin her greatest adventure of all. Located high in the New Mexico mountains, Las Ladronas has
become a magnet for the very wealthy and very hip, but
once upon a time it was the setting of a childhood trauma
Tessa can only half remember. Now, as she rediscovers both
her old hometown and her past, Tessa is drawn to search-
and-rescue worker Vince Grasso. The handsome widower isn’t
her type. No more inclined to settle down than Tessa,
Vince is the father of three, including an eight-year-old
girl as lost as Tessa herself. But Tessa and Vince are
both drawn to the town’s most beloved eatery–100
Breakfasts–and to each other. For Tessa, the restaurant is
not only the key to the mystery that has haunted her life
but a chance to find the home and the family she’s never
known.
