Overview

Welcome to Takoda Outreach Center. Prepare yourself for open hearts, a full belly, and all the love you can handle. Opening a soup kitchen in my mom’s honor is a dream come true. Doing it with my two best friends only makes it better. Zachery, with his haunted eyes and air of unhappiness, is convinced to help out, and I want nothing more than to make him smile. When he needs a fake date for a family party, I happily return the favor. Now we’re getting to know each other better, and I know he’s all that’s been missing from my life. Can I convince the stubborn man to open his heart and start living again, or will he drown in his sorrow? In this story, you’ll find quirky old people, brilliant uses for superglue, and chalkboard confessions of love. In Sammi’s low-angst, super-sweet world, hugs are freely given and happily-ever-afters are guaranteed. Previously titled Heavenly Melody: No changes have to original manuscript have been made.
