The happiest day of Veronica Davis' life was
the day that she left Fossil, Washington to become
a designer/restorer of old homes. Now based in
Seattle with a thriving business, she is forced
to go back to her hometown when her flighty
sister Crystal is murdered and her husband is
accused of the crime. Veronica arrives in Fossil
to take care of Crystal's daughter, and ends up
doing the one job she swore she'd never do again:
tending bar at the family's honky tonk.
But she's short-handed, and wants to sell the bar for
her niece's benefit, so she goes back to waitressing
until she can find a replacement. To make things
worse, the handsome bartender, Cooper Blackstock, is
very antagonistic. Apparently he also knew the conniving
Crystal, and thinks that Veronica is cut from the same
cloth. But Cooper is not who he seems to be, and
he and Veronica have a long way to go before their
blossoming attraction has any chance of turning into true love.
Head Over Heels is a gutsy, heartfelt contemporary romance that is sure to tug at your heartstrings. Susan Anderson takes on some weighty issues here, such as trust and responsibility, and integrates them deftly into a funny and passionate love story which is sure to garner her more fans.
