BABY, COME HOME is the second book in Stephanie Bonds'
Southern Roads Series featuring the Armstrong brothers. In
Baby, Drive South we met Porter, Kendall, and Marcus
Armstrong who are determined to rebuild their home town ten
years after it was destroyed by a tornado. They have a
federal grant and two years to build a self-sustaining green
community. They have money, creativity, and men who aren't
afraid of a hard work and long days. What they don't have
is women, and it's starting to affect the men who are
getting mighty lonely. So, Kendall places an ad in the
newspaper of Broadway, Michigan, a town hit hard by the
economic downturn, hoping a few adventurous women will join
their effort. Actually, Kendall is hoping one woman in
particular will respond. He made the mistake of leaving Amy
Bradshaw once; he's hoping she'll recognize his invitation
to come home. When Amy, a civil-engineer, reluctantly
returns to Sweetness to help re-build a bridge, she brings
much more than her professional talents.
I enjoyed the continuing adventures of the Armstrong
brothers and Sweetness' new residents. Kendall and Amy have
some real issues to work through, and their struggles ring
true. I particularly liked becoming better acquainted with
some of the supporting characters. I look forward to seeing
where they all end up in Baby, Don't Go.
The hardheaded Armstrong brothers are determined to rebuild
their tornado-ravaged hometown in the Georgia mountains.
They’ve got the means, they’ve got the manpower…what they
need are women! So they place an ad in a Northern newspaper
and wait for the ladies to arrive…
Sensible yet sexy middle brother Kendall Armstrong penned
that ad himself—but there’s just one woman he really wants
to answer the call…
Civil engineer Amy Bradshaw—Kendall’s ex-fiancée—fled
Sweetness years ago, taking a precious souvenir with her.
She’s back now…but only on a professional level. Really.
Little does she know that old flames
always burn the hottest…
