Save the Last Dance: A coming home story (Take the Backroads)

They've already said goodbye. But maybe they can have one last dance…
Mack Finley left his Tennessee hometown for good reasons. Yet he always knew the problems deep in the Finley clan would one day draw him back. What he didn’t count on was encountering an old flame at the same time, and that one-two punch from the past has him reeling.
Nina Spencer never forgot Mack. But she respects that they wanted different things out of life. Now, with the life she built imploding, she’s not sure how to resist the draw of the man and the magic of their shared memories. When she comes face to face with Mack’s complicated family again, she quickly recalls why things fell apart between her and Mack the first time. As old secrets come to light and new pressures make it harder than ever to stay together, Mack and Nina grapple with what it means to be a family.
