Talulah's Back in Town: a novel (Coyote Canyon, 1)

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?

Sexy, small-town romance at its best! This book pulled me in right from the start. I love character driven books with steamy scenes. Talulah and Brant together were hot! I tried to read slower so I could make the story last but it couldn't be helped, and I finished this in no time. I'm ready for the next book already. LOL

Coyote Canyon has started off with a bang. Talulah is the runaway bride returned to town. She is a wonderful chef who still hasn’t settled down. Brant is a rancher who has always lived in town. He is best friends with the man she was to marry 14 years ago. The author has created a wonderful community with the characters. It is an interesting and entertaining story. Readers will be delighted as they turn they pages and get to know everyone. Talulah and Brant defy the odds against them and get a happily ever after.

Brenda has done it again. I can’t wait for the next book. I’m so happy this is a series. Brings back memories of Whiskey Creek and Silver Springs. Talulah comes home after 14 years when her aunt dies and she’s left to take care of her estate. Very few people are glad to see her again including her ex-fiancée that she left at the altar and his best friend. Of course the first person she sees is the ex’s bf. He’s holding a grudge and lets her know. However, she soon sees his dislike was actually hiding his true feelings. Add to the mix Talulah’s business partner who she’s just started dating and you’ve got an entertaining read that I didn’t want to put down.
