Love of a Lifetime: An Abundance Series Prequel

Previously published as Love, Lies, and Homemade Pie.

When a woman who's starting over falls for a journalist trying to dig up her past, does the attraction between them stand a chance?

Cara Smith can't wait to put the first half of 1980 behind her and build a new life in the little town of Abundance, Missouri. If she can just avoid questions from that cute guy at the newspaper, no one ever needs to find out about her past.

Will Hamlin, editor of the local paper, has some serious questions about the mayor's new secretary. She's clearly hiding something-something that could be the big story the newspaper desperately needs to stay afloat. But after Will's initial queries find nothing, he grows less interested in Cara's past and more interested in winning her heart with slices of pie and stolen kisses.

When a crime is uncovered at city hall just as Will unearths Cara's secret, the repercussions shatter their romance. Can Cara ever escape her past? Can Will finally find a way to save the paper? And can they learn to place their trust in God and open their hearts to the love of a lifetime?

"Love of a Lifetime" is a stand-alone contemporary Christian romance novel and is the prequel to the Abundance series by Sally Bayless. If you like a sweet, small-town romance with a touch of humor and characters with real-world problems, you'll love this heartwarming story.
