About this ebook

Sometimes the past we leave behind leads us right where we belong.

Talulah Barclay doesn’t like complications. Unfortunately, they seem to love her. Fourteen years after leaving her fiancé at the altar, Talulah returns to her hometown of Coyote Canyon, Montana, to settle her great-aunt’s estate. As she’d feared, her “runaway bride” reputation is waiting right where she left it, and her ex’s best friend, Brant, isn’t about to let her slip by unnoticed.

Brant has always been a loyal friend, but Talulah’s decision to run isn’t the only thing he hasn’t forgotten. He remembers more about Talulah than he cares to admit. Vividly. And it’s increasingly difficult to ignore her now, especially when they find themselves in close quarters. Talulah has no plans to stay in town after she fixes up her aunt’s Victorian farmhouse, even if the unbridled sparks with Brant give her a good reason to linger. Besides, bailing on relationships is kind of her thing. But a lot has changed since Talulah last turned tail—maybe her heart has changed, too?

Ratings and reviews

Brenda Novak has been my favorite author for the last 4 years or so. I have read almost all of her novels and am always waiting for Brenda's upcoming novel. For novel Talulah's Back in town, the plot and story are cool. Talulah, the runaway bride, finally returned to her hometown.There is something unique. The main male character is not the groom who was left running away but his best man.The conflict is also good because it turns out that Talulah already has a boyfriend. It's just that the thriller isn't that cruel, if it were made more tense it would definitely be even cooler.Overall, I really like it and continue to wait for another series of the Brenda Novak series.I think whatever Brend Novak writes, I'll like it.

I really enjoyed this sweet, slow burning romance between two people who were so reluctant to love. They both understood each other's hesitancy and I think this brought them closer. I really loved Brant. He was just so yummy! I am glad he finally found Talulah who could give him what he had been missing from his life. Together these two could accomplish anything.

A page turner. Could not put it down.
