She returns home. He watches over her. Then they both find out the truth, amongst a killerā¦a day too late.
Years ago, I left Clarkstown with a sour puss on my face and better hopes for the future. But what I ended up with was extra baggage, in more ways than one, and even more reasons to leave. Now that Iām home, Iām not sure if Austin Walters looks at me with pity, hatredā¦or something else, as most of the town folk do. But when he figures out the real reason why I left, he looks at me in a different light. Even more importantly, he realizes more of what I need now that Iām back. And now I seem to look at him and everyone else differently, thanks to him.
Whinny has changed a lot. Itās too bad that my family and my hometown canāt see that. Never the thorn in anyoneās side, as she thought she was, Whinny left. But now sheās back, and she needs help. Mama always says that thereās no point existing if we canāt help each other. So, I do, regardless of the warnings and looks I get in the process. As Iāve told her many times before, Whinny is one of a kind. I just wish sheād believe it.
With a new baby arriving in the family, another wedding, and a renewed hope for Whinny, none of us realizes that a stranger from Whinnyās past is on his way to Clarkstownā¦with a gun in his hand and a score to settle.
