Book excerpt: This is a boxed set of the latest three books from the Lost in a Boom Town series. Circle on Home As the vet of Evansville, Texas, Noah Braun is in demand, but when he's not on the job, he keeps to himself. He has his hands full with his unemployed brother and his disabled sister, and now his father is coming home from prison. As if his life isn't in enough upheaval, Miranda Bonner, his high school sweetheart who left when his father went to prison, has come back home. Miranda has returned to Evansville after living the life she'd always dreamed of. She attended a top-tier university, traveled the world, fell in love with a man who could afford to give her whatever she wants. One visit home, one chance meeting with Noah, and nothing in her new life satisfies her anymore. She wants to see if she can be happy in Evansville, but will Noah give her another chance when she left him at the lowest point in his life? Blame It on the Texas Stroll Deputy Wyatt Jordan isn't sure he’s sticking around Evansville, Texas much longer. The oil boom is winding down, the oil camps are closing and he’s stuck working nights, which he hates. Until he gets a call from a damsel in distress. Nurse Jolie Guenther has just moved into the house by the cemetery with her roommates. If the location isn't eerie enough, she starts hearing strange sounds at night. Luckily, the cute deputy she’s encountered a few times is available to help any time she needs him, whether he’s rounding up trespassers, taking her shooting or making her a brisket. A series of crises throw them together, so they work side by side to help their neighbors, finding that the more they build on each other’s strengths, the deeper their feelings go. This good-hearted, hard-working woman is reason enough to stay right where he is. Twirling with Trouble Willa Fisher has come home to Evansville because she has no place else to go. But her mother, Vonda, owner of the Coyote Moon Bar and Grill, isn’t letting her have a free ride. No matter Willa's reason for returning, she has to work the breakfast shift in the restaurant where she grew up. And that's where she catches the attention of Ben Braun, who is having trouble keeping a job, trouble keeping sober. But something about the quiet newcomer draws him. And when he finds out she is expecting a child, well, protective instincts he didn’t know he had come out in him. He has to change his life if he wants to be a part of hers.
