When a woman returns home to Louisiana's Butterfly Bayou, her high
school crush finally notices she exists, in a small-town contemporary
romance from New York Times bestselling author Lexi Blake.
Quaid Havery always planned to follow in his father's footsteps. He went
to law school and then came home to take over his dad's legal practice.
Being the only lawyer in small-town Papillon, Quaid is pretty sure he's
seen everything. After all, he was once asked to sue an alligator for
defamation of character. He's prepared for anything the town can throw
at him, until he encounters Jayna Cardet. She's gorgeous, smart, funny,
and unlike any woman he's met before....Except he has.
Jayna never thought she'd return to Papillon, but when her life gets
turned around she must learn to live in the close-knit community again.
She certainly never dreamed she would practice law in her little town,
but she finds herself in the courtroom, and the opposing counsel is her
former high school crush, Quaid. It wouldn't be so bad if the man had
developed a beer belly, but Quaid is more handsome than ever. And
instead of ignoring her like he did in high school, he's made it plain
that he wants to get to know her.
Thus begins a courtship destined to end in a wedding or a war. Either
way, the locals are popping some corn and eagerly awaiting the outcome.
