RAYLENE, the second book in Lori Wilde's trilogy of holiday
novellas (The Christmas Cookie Chronicles), takes us back to
Twilight, Texas and the Sweetheart Park fountain. The legend
says if you throw a penny into the fountain you will be
reunited with your high school sweetheart and live
happily-ever-after. Raylene had over thirty years with her
sweetheart until he left after she confessed to having had a
child she gave up. A year later, Raylene is running the
Horney Toad Tavern alone and starting to wonder if Earl is
ever coming home. When Raylene hires a new cocktail
waitress to help around the bar, she doesn't know that
Shannon is the daughter she's never met but missed her
entire life.
RAYLENE is a wonderful story, heartwarming and tender. Ms.
Wilde gives us two stories for the price of one: a new
blossoming romance between Shannon and Nate Deavers, and
Raylene and Earl making their way back to each other. I
couldn't put this book down until I was sure everyone got
the happy ending they deserved.
