Small Towns have long memories… Anna Ridley thought she outlasted the rumors of her parentage that haunted her all her life. Her salon, Talk of the Town, was a huge success, with clients waiting weeks to get into for a cut and color. Then...Horace Crowne, the town’s patriarch, died and left her a huge inheritance. Word spread like wildfire, breathing life back into the stories that her mother and Horace were far more than co-workers. Anna would have willingly denied she was a Crowne and walked away. Unfortunately, a court order robbed her of that opportunity. Now, it falls to Chase Sloan—an attorney for the estate—to investigate the matter and determine if she’s a biological recipient of Horace’s fortune. Family secrets. Malicious exes. Brewing attractions. Boiling rivalries. All of it has twisted Anna’s life into a tangled mess. Can Chase comb through the clues to find the truth? Or will his constant pressing cause Anna to cut him from her life... and her heart? From best-selling author, Melanie Jayne, comes a brand-new series clipped with humor and highlighted with swoon-worthy romance!
