The Welcome Home Garden Club

A wounded soldier returns to Twilight to reclaim his first love, discovering that true devotion never fades in small-town Texas.

The fourth book in New York Times bestselling author Lori Wilde's Twilight, Texas series, The Welcome Home Garden Club is a wonderfully poignant contemporary romance novel that captures the everyday magic of small-town life and love.

Wilde brings former Green Beret Gideon Garza home to Twilight on his vintage motorcycle, shocking the town when he appears at his estranged father's funeral alive.

The story reunites him with widowed florist Caitlyn Marsh, who spent eight years mourning him while raising the young son he never knew existed. Twilight surrounds the hesitant pair with second chances as the local garden club enlists Caitlyn to cultivate a victory garden around her family's historic carousel.

Fans of Sherryl Woods, Susan Wiggs, Susan Mallery, and Debbie Macomber will treasure this love story about a Green Beret hero who returns to his home town with one goal in mind: to win back the heart of the girl he left behind.
