Queen of the Dixie Drive-In — Peg Sutherland

Welcome to Sweetbranch, Alabama. Folks are friendly, children are safe and down-home hospitality abounds. Once in a while, though, things are not quite what they seem....

"VALENTINES ARE FOR SAPS!"
And don't you forget it, fourteen-year-old Carson Delaney told herself. Then Tony de Fuentes gave her a chocolate heart--and she knew she'd never forget him!

Even so, when she returned to Sweetbranch ten years later to make a home for her little sister, Tony was the last person she expected to see. Or wanted to. He knew a little too much about her life in San Francisco, too much about the person she used to be. Now she just wanted a new start, a family, a chance to make amends.

And damn it all, she still wanted Tony.
