Welcome to Litsy!

When a family crisis calls him back to Big Prairie, will Craig Erikson be able to work through past mistakes and a tragedy that had sent him searching for a new place to call home?Craig Erickson had it all. Hometown hero status. Rising football fame. And the love of the coach's daughter. His future looked golden until it all fell apart. After, life no longer made sense, and for seven years Craig wandered from place to place, hiding his pain behind a smile. When an emergency comes up at home, he's compelled to return to Big Prairie. Brenna Blaum had been sure of a few things: she'd never let anything happen to her younger, special needs brother, Scottie; and she'd make it to the Olympic trials someday. After falling for her dad's star receiver in high school, Craig Erikson made his way onto her certainty list. But when Craig's success in college football skyrocketed his popularity to a national level, he'd ended their relationship, breaking her heart. Then, an accident took Scottie. Devastated, she lost the will to run. In one awful year, everything she'd been sure of vanished.Over the years, Brenna recovered. Refusing to leave her hometown, she made a way for herself as a speech therapist. Comfortable in her quiet life, when she hears that Craig is to return to Big Prairie, she is determined not to let his homecoming upend her world. But somethings are unavoidable-especially in a small town. As Craig and Brenna are pushed together, can they endure the hard places still littering their lives? And if so, is it possible to find their way back to love and home again?
