Wedding Bands (River's Sigh B & B, #1)

by Ev Bishop

Overview

If you had a second chance with your first love, would you take it?

Ditched by her high school sweetheart, Callum Archer, on the night they're supposed to elope, Jo Kendall casts out on her own, broken-hearted.

Over the years, Jo reels in a life she loves, centered on the outdoors, fishing (favoring a lucky wedding band lure), and her fine dining restaurant—a life that crashes away when her husband and business partner cheats her, leaving her bankrupt and alone.

Then her uncle dies, bequeathing Jo and her sister, Samantha, his rural property. Jo returns to Greenridge, determined to build a new business and permanent home without a man's help. Unfortunately, Samantha wants her inheritance in cold, hard cash and hires a lawyer to get it for her, a lawyer who turns out to be none other than Jo's long-lost love, Callum.

Jo's fledgling plans—and her heart—are in danger once more.

If Jo can fight her insecurities and see through the big lies of someone close to her, she might end up with a wedding band that doesn't come with a sharp hook. But can she risk everything she's worked for, yet again?

Fans of heartwarming small-town contemporary romance, sister stories, second chances, and furry dog friends will fall in love with River's Sigh B & B and never want to leave!

About the Author

Ev Bishop is an award-winning, USA Today bestselling author, best known for her small-town contemporary romance series, River’s Sigh B & B. Readers describe her books as “full of humor, love and wisdom,” set in places “where breathtaking scenery and the magic of love are the best medicine for the soul.”

When Ev’s nose isn’t in a book or her fingers aren’t on her keyboard, you’ll find her with her family and dogs or playing outside, usually at the lake or in an overgrown garden somewhere.

She loves any and all garden related talk and work, cooking (and eating!), and making all sorts of random things—especially out of upcycled or reclaimed items.

She hopes you love Jo, Sam, Aisha, and the rest of the River’s Sigh B & B clan as much as she does and that you’ll give her other stories a try too.

Editorial Reviews

Kicks off a series you won't want to miss. Heartfelt, compelling small town romance at its best!

NYT Bestselling Author - Cora Seton

Real and warm and fun and heartbreaking... and of course, romantic! The characters are super well drawn, to the point that I felt I knew these people. The romance too is awesome and heartfelt, and I was also wonderfully surprised at the relationship between the sisters. Bishop has a real knack for understanding and portraying relationships. I am super glad that this is going to be a series!

GoodReads - Angela Dorsey

It has been a long time since I've DEVOURED a book but I would say I did so with Jo and Callum's story. I love a good second chance romance.

The characters were believable and REAL, like people I know in my daily (small town) life.

GoodReads - Amity Lassiter

"Funny and sweet. If you love cosy romance, you should read this book. Once you get to know the flawed-but-loveable characters in the quirky little town of Greenridge, you will want to read more. A thoroughly enjoyable read!"

GoodReads - Izzy Mortimer

I read all night!! This story was so good that I couldn't put it down. I had to keep going until the end. Jo and Callum are former high school sweethearts... I know what you are thinking, "yeah, read one read 'em all" right? WRONG!! This is not another typical boy and girl go their separate ways and get back together later story. There is so much more going on than what meets the eye. I am starting book two right now!
