Not my home / by Johnstone, William W.,author.; Johnstone, J. A.,author.;
"The sudden arrival of big-city elites in small-town America triggers a violent wave of protests--and a possible civil war--in this explosive thriller from the bestselling authors of Down the Dark Streets. This is ... NOT MY HOME They came from the cities. Wealthy professionals fleeing the crime-ridden northern blue states for the peace and tranquility of small-town life. The good people of Springerville, South Carolina, welcome them with open arms. Until ... Almost overnight, they take over the Springerville. They snatch up the real estate. Turn old-fashioned stores into fancy boutiques. Transform the schools. And bring crime and corruption with them. Now one of these invaders--a predatory media mogul from New York--is running for mayor and plans to turn Springerville into a sprawling urban enclave ... just like the ones the northerners left behind ... NOT ON YOUR LIFE Not if Gus Fuller can stop it. A former army sergeant and lifelong townie, Gus runs the old luncheonette his grandfather built--and plans to give the media mogul a run for his money. Everyone in Springerville loves Gus, and he has no problem winning the mayoral race. But when the mogul falsely accuses him of rigging the election, all hell breaks loose. Busloads of angry mobs roll into town. Rioting, looting, burning ... Main Street is a war zone. So Gus and his army buddies are dusting off their uniforms--and taking a stand ... It's time to fight back. It's time to fight hard. It's time to take back our home."--Publisher's description.

Fake it till you make it / by London, Siera,author.;
"When Amarie Walker goes for something, she goes big--including starting over. Leaving her cheating ex and entire D.C. life in the rear-view, she crash lands in a small town with no plan, no money, and no job. An opening at the animal clinic is the only gig for miles, no surprise considering the vet is a certified grump. If Eli Calvary ever cracked a smile, Amarie might faint on sight from shock. At least his adorable golden retriever appreciates her fabulousness ... and shares her love of daily treats! When Eli took over his late father's practice, he quickly discovered the clinic was facing foreclosure. So there's no time for social niceties, especially not flirting, even with someone as gorgeous, bubbly, and business-savvy as Amarie. Yet when Eli needs to invent an investor on the fly, it's her name that comes to his lips. Now, for the sake of their furry clients, Eli and Amarie hustle to save the clinic, trying to ignore the nonstop sparks between them. Because while their partnership may be fake, their connection already feels way too real."--Back cover.

Once upon a cabin / by Griffin, Patience.;
Two sisters from Texas find themselves exiled to Alaska . . . and thrown into the arms of two very different men. Tori and McKenna St. James have been living comfortably on their trust funds in Dallas. But their uncle Monty, keeper of the purse strings, decides to push them out of their comfort zones by requiring them to spend one year in Alaska or lose their inheritance. Initially the sisters are stunned, but they aren't willing to back down from the challenge. Tori is sent to a primitive homestead outside the tiny town of Sweet Home. She had been prepared to forego fashion magazines and lattes, but not electricity and running water. Will her rugged wilderness guide, Jesse Montana, teach her to survive, or send her fleeing back to civilization? Meanwhile, outdoors McKenna is stuck within the concrete walls of an Anchorage bank. Her sexy boss Luke McAvoy is tasked with teaching her the business but what he's really doing is tempting her. Not that she's the type to fall for a stuffed suit like him. Tori and McKenna find much needed solace with Sweet Home's Sisterhood of the Quilt. Will this crafty group of women be up to the challenge of teaching two outsiders how to sew--and perhaps how to love?
