Three women return home in search of second chances in this
heartwarming short story from New York Times best-selling author
Carolyn Brown.
What do a runaway bride, a free spirit, and a corporate exec have in
common? Besides all being down on their luck, Lainie, Jodi, and Becky
are Lizzie Cornell's granddaughters. Upon inheriting their grandmother's
home and family bait shop, the three cousins return to Catfish, Texas,
grieving Lizzie's passing and hoping to find the fresh start they all
need.
Turns out cohabitating together and running the Catfish Fisherman's Hut
isn't at all like the idyllic summers they spent as children on the
banks of the Red River. The days are long and hot, the tourists
demanding and rude. And then there's Chris, a local river guide who
seems to have eyes only for Becky.
But Lizzie's death has set in motion a chain of events that will cause a
new generation of Cornell women to come together. And thanks to this
chance inheritance, some local fishermen, and the love of their Granny
Lizzie, the Cornell cousins discover that sometimes an ending is really
the beginning of a brand-new happily ever after.
