Official synopsis Publisher
“Three cousins return down South for a homecoming that’s a little bitter, a whole lot sweet, and full of surprises. Upon inheriting their sassy grandmother’s home and family bait shop, three cousins–Lanie, Jodi, and Becky Cornell–return to Catfish, Texas, looking for a fresh start. Turns out living as roommates in Granny Lizzie’s tiny two-bedroom house and running the Catfish Fisherman’s Hut isn’t at all like the idyllic summers they spent as children on the banks of the Red River. The days are long and hot, the tourists demanding and rude. And then there’s Chris Adams, a local river guide who seems to have eyes only for Becky. But Lizzie’s death has set in motion a chain of events that will cause a new generation of Cornell women to come together. And thanks to this chance inheritance, some local fishermen, and the love of their grandmother, the Cornell cousins discover that sometimes an ending is really the beginning of a brand-new happily ever after”–
