Description
One small town, one big prize, one handsome stranger...
Nothing ever changes in Redford, Georgia. That's what freelance editor Jess Reid loves about her hometown—and part of what keeps her from leaving. Content taking care of her father, a car mechanic who singlehandedly raised her after her mom skipped out, Jess is resigned to a safe, unremarkable existence...until Jasper Wilhelm, the town’s eccentric benefactor, dies suddenly and leaves behind the opportunity of a lifetime.
Financial advisor Carter Barclay has been too busy to visit his grandfather in Redford, but he’s heard countless stories about the town and its zany residents from Jasper. A small, insular town in Georgia is the last place Carter expects to be spending his summer—but it seems his grandfather had one final trick up his sleeve.
At the funeral, it’s revealed that Jasper has devised a massive, high-stakes game for the people of Redford, with the winning duo taking home his entire fortune. The catch? He’s already taken the liberty of pairing them up. As tensions of all kinds rise between Jess and Carter, and the life-changing prize looms closer, the two must decide what they’re willing to risk to change their lives. A love story full of spirit and hijinks, The Only Game in Town is a funny, quirky homage to the people we get to call home.
Commentaires
"Fun, wholesome, and, at times, poignant, Waldon’s third novel, following From the Jump, will have readers falling in love with Redford and the diverse group of characters who call it home." —Booklist
"Waldon has a solid sense of humor, and her characters are engaging….Romance fans should enjoy playing this game to the end. A lighthearted romp for fans of romantic comedy about the benefits of working together for a community." —Kirkus Reviews
"Lacie Waldon has done it again! The Only Game in Town is delightfully twisty, inventive and sweet, with a setting that swoops you up and characters you'll love to fall for." —Lauren Kate, author of By Any Other Name
