Sometimes, we have to take a roundabout route
to get to where we're meant to be....

CASEY Bradley is eighteen years old and four weeks away from marrying her childhood sweetheart the day that Danny Fiore walks into her life and turns it upside down. Nobody has ever taken her songwriting seriously until this tall, blue-eyed singer, whose voice slices her heart to ribbons, asks her to write for him. Always the good girl, Casey has never done anything that Mama or Daddy would disapprove of. But the first time she looks into Danny Fiore's eyes, her traitorous common sense deserts her, leaving her ready to toss away her entire future for a man who is almost certain to break her heart.




Danny Fiore is a singer with a dream, and the determination to make that dream come true. His determination leads him directly to Casey Bradley, for the songs she writes send an icy finger down the center of Danny's cynical spine. He knows exactly where he's going, and he has no intention of taking any woman along. A girl like Casey would want things he's not prepared to offer. A home. Kids. Some kind of stability. Danny Fiore is married to his music, and the last thing he needs, the last thing he expects, is to fall in love. But sometimes, the heart has a mind of its own.




Rob MacKenzie doesn't have Danny's looks, or his charisma, or his sense of style. Tall and gaunt and bony, Rob isn't a god, just an ordinary mortal, but the sounds he's capable of evoking from a simple six-string guitar are nothing short of ethereal. For Rob, the fame and the money are just window dressing; it's the music that feeds his soul. He's a simple man, with simple passions: he wants only to write his songs, to play his guitar, and to find the right woman. But his search for Ms. Right keeps leading him down all the wrong roads.




When Casey Bradley Fiore and Rob MacKenzie begin writing songs together, the result is an unstoppable hit-making machine that catapults Danny Fiore to stardom. But professional success isn't a satisfactory substitute for the personal fulfillment that somehow remains just beyond Casey's reach. When tragedy strikes, she is forced to question fundamental beliefs that she's spent her entire life taking for granted. In the process, she learns that the choices a woman makes at thirty can differ vastly from the ones she made at eighteen.

Coming Home, a story of love, friendship, and the seasons of a woman's heart....
