Welcome to Last Chance






Book Blurb:

The red warning light on her car dashboard drove Lainie Davis to seek help in the tiny town of Last Chance, New Mexico. But as she encounters the people who make Last Chance their home, it’s her heart that is flashing bright red warning lights. These people are entirely too nice, too accommodating, and too interested in her personal life for Lainie’s comfort-especially since she’s on the run and hoping to slip away unnoticed.
Yet in spite of herself, Lainie finds that she is increasingly drawn in to the dramas of small town life. An old church lady who always has room for a stranger. A handsome bartender with a secret life. A single mom running her diner and worrying over her teenage son. Could Lainie actually make a life in this little hick town? Or will the past catch up to her even here in the middle of nowhere?


 About the author:



Cathleen Armstrong lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, Ed, and their corgi. Though she has been in California for many years now, her roots remain deep in New Mexico where she grew up and where much of her family still lives. After she and Ed...




My Thoughts:

This is a great debut novel. Lainie is leaving her boyfriend Nick, who is nothing but trouble. She notices the red light on her dashboard flashing, but ignores it. Her car breaks down in hick town, Last Chance, New Mexico. She soon begins meeting people in this small town and is surprised at how warm and friendly they are. From the lady who always has an extra room for someone, to the waitress who very kind to her. It seems Lainie has found a place to call home, and rebuild her life.

This is also the first book in the A Place To Call Home series, and I think the name of the series is perfect!
Can't wait for the next in the series!
