When Liberty Watkins delivers flowers to the local auto shop owned by the Truax boys, who does she run into? Blade Truax. She hasn’t seen Blade in years, mainly because he’s been in prison serving a sentence based solely on the testimony of Libby’s sister, Mariam. Yes, Libby and Blade have history. In fact, that summer, right before he’d been charged with sexually assaulting her sister, Libby and Blade had been meeting secretly almost every day. And Libby had felt something for him—something major. She thought he’d felt it too. Was that why she still questioned her sister’s testimony, because she wanted so badly to believe in Blade? Or was it something else? Blade doesn’t trust women anymore, for obvious reasons, but he particularly doesn’t trust women with the last name Watkins. So, when Libby Watkins shows up at his family business, he isn’t happy. How dare she stand there pretending there had been nothing between them. Did she even remember that it was her he’d been waiting to meet that fateful night when his entire life went down the toilet? They should not be together. There is way too much pain down that road for any kind of redemption. But it looks like fate has other plans when, despite Blade’s objections, Libby is hired to be the auto shop’s new office assistant.

Reviews for The Small Town Boy's Redemption: ★★★★★ "Yep, this book was amazing —from the first chapter to the epilogue. Libby and Blade’s story had me in a melted puddle." - Forevermooremom ★★★★★ "I stalk this author for her releases so I guess it's the good and approved kind of stalking. I always love her characters and the story and I get a welcome relief from all of the bedroom details other authors feel they need to make their stories work.” – Teri ★★★★★ “With an engaging plot and complex characters, it was a sweet, at times heartbreaking story about life, redemption, hope, new beginnings and the possibility of finding true love.” - Yvonne ★★★★★ "What a great story. I enjoyed the characters and how trials, bitterness, forgiveness and love are worked out in a really believable story line." - Kindle Customer ★★★★★ "The story is sometimes light & funny, then thought provoking...no matter where you are, it pulls you deeper & won't let you walk away." - Norma Books in The Small Town Boys series: The Small Town Boy's Redemption The Small Town Boy's Secret Romance The Small Town Boy's Second Chance

Claire HardingI live in Idaho. (Yes, potatoes. *eye roll* Can we talk about something else?) And I love it here. Small town values galore and it's right where I want to raise my girls after my jerk ex traded me in for a "younger, newer model" (his words, not mine).My mom's the volunteer fire chief in our town and I'm pretty happy hanging out with the auxiliary at the fire hall and doing her grunt work - NOT fighting fires, because, please, I read, love science and my idea of a lot of exercise is having to walk up the stairs twice in the morning before I send my girls off to school and leave for my job as a home nurse.I guess it's kind of weird that I also coach basketball. Long story.I was pretty happy with my life until the hot shot, all-state baller from my teen years moved back in next door. (I babysat him, yes, but I never changed his diapers. Just wanted to be clear about that.)Guess who's now the assistant b-ball coach? Logic would say me - especially since I coached my entire first year holding the play book upside down (it turned out to be an old football playbook from the '80s, so it's not like it mattered which way I held it) but the accurate answer is Trey Haywood, my all-star neighbor, and I'm honestly not sure which of us is more upset about it.Anyway, the team was trying to set us up (girls, they're such romantics) and I don't think they would have succeeded, but in celebration of breaking our 37 game losing streak, they locked Trey and me in the septic system control room. That changed everything. Not in a good way.TreyYeah. What she said.And...when I first saw her again, I thought she was a catastrophe. New thought post septic control: she's a cute catastrophe. (And, holy man, can she kiss.)

The tightknit community supports each other and his daughters enjoy working in the ice cream shop and playing in the beach band. When Zariah and her teenage niece, Macie, move in across the street, opening a clothing boutique, Gage's attraction to her is immediate. Their relationship seems too good to be true. Or maybe it's Macie that's too good to be true. When Macie is caught in a crime spree that includes stealing cars, destroying property and dealing drugs, the small community is shocked and appalled. Will Gage and Zariah's relationship be able to weather this storm? Will Blueberry Beach ever feel safe again? Reviews for Beautiful Forevers: ★★★★★ "The book was just all consuming, heart wrenching, wonderful, everyone should read this one, it speaks to your heart like no other story I have ever read." - KRP ★★★★★ "God's grace is one of Gussman's favorite themes and she portrays it perfectly in Beautiful Forevers. Grace isn't a magic wand. It can't negate the harm done or whisk away the consequences, but it can show the way forward to healing and redemption. I have loved all of the Blueberry Beach novels, but Beautiful Forevers is my current favorite." - Charlene ★★★★★ "Wow - This is way different than the books I've been reading. It also deals with issues we parents pray we'll never have to deal with. But life happens. And grace is there. And life goes on." - Kindle Customer ★★★★★ "This is such an amazing story!!! I love how Ms. Gussman's romances intermingle the problems of real life with the love story. I suppose I feel that way because that's the way it truly happens. Her stories always read more like a glimpse into someone's life, than a fictional tale!" - Ballet in AK ★★★★★ "Wow. I am, as always, blown away by the emotion and real-ness of Jessie Gussman's works. This book is such a great example of how someone (a teen, especially) may deal with grief. I was floored." - Janet Books in the Blueberry Beach series: Yesterday's Treasures Tomorrow's Blessings Beautiful Forevers Precious Memories Misty Mornings Sweet Afternoons

As they agreed on the night of their high school graduation, Leiklyn and her two friends, Tiffany and Willen meet on the porch of the Manor at Blueberry Beach on April Fool's day, eighteen years after being given their diplomas. Life hadn't turned out as expected for any of them. A single mother for fifteen years, Leiklyn recently lost her job in HR for an oil company and her unemployment is running out. Could the manor she and her friends bought for $1 at a tax sale in celebration of graduation be the change she needs to move forward in her life? Or will it just complicate things when she finds out the explosive secret her fifteen-year-old daughter is hiding? When she finds out that her old high school crush - and the only one who knows her most terrible secret - now owns the hardware store and will be working closely with them on renovations, Leiklyn must choose whether she wants to start over somewhere else, or whether the draw of spending misty mornings by the lake with a man who understands her all too well is worth the risk to her heart. Reviews for Misty Mornings: ★★★★★ "This book was so good I didn't want it to end and I'm anxious for the next book. A heartwarming story that captivated me from the beginning. I can't wait for the next book." - MJ ★★★★★ "A story of midlife, with real drama, & a second chance at life and love. It has a sweet romance woven through and an undercurrent of faith for hope." - Kindle Customer ★★★★★ "Jessie writes about imperfect people making less than ideal decisions-so basically any one of us. She helps us see how those decisions make sense to the characters and gives us such empathy and caring. She doesn't excuse the wrong choices or downplay the consequences, but she shows how they can be redeemed and turn their lives around. This is Jessie at her best, telling a story that pulls you in and makes you forget the rest of your life, while lovingly planting seeds of goodness and redemption." - Wren ★★★★★ "This is a delightful book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I love the way Jessie brings God's guidance and His forgiveness into the story. As you read the book you can't help but love the characters. If you like a good cozy romance, you will enjoy this book. You just can't go wrong with a Jessie Gussman book!" - jill ★★★★★ "The characters really made this story, especially Leiklyn and Ethan, who had carried a tremendous secret between them that broke up their friendship in high school. I enjoyed watching them open up to each other and to try to overcome and move on together from the past." - lori Books in the Blueberry Beach series: Yesterday's Treasures Tomorrow's Blessings Beautiful Forevers Precious Memories Misty Mornings Sweet Afternoons
