Romeo Fails by Amy Briant

Dorsey Larue nicknamed her the “Naked Silver Lake Goddess.” It was a one-night only encounter, no names, just the music from the women’s festival and the stars as witnesses. Reluctantly returned home to Romeo Falls, where life in the family hardware store exceeds her every expectation for tedium, Dorsey faces another summer of loneliness until her best friend’s cousin, Sarah, arrives in town. Dorsey recognizes her immediately and the passion they shared immediately flares again. But small minds in small towns aren’t ready for Sarah and Dorsey, the couple. In fact, rumors about Sarah’s past in the big city abound. When an escalating series of malicious crimes brings all accusing eyes to the newcomer, Dorsey may find herself alone once again, this time with a broken heart...and possibly worse. What happened at the music festival doesn’t stay at the music festival in Amy Briant’s irresistible story of a lonely heart, a red Volkswagen bug and a love affair that is anything but simple.
