For the Love of Quilts

Can a career woman find happiness and success in the small town she once fled, where nothing and everything is the same when she's forced to come home?

After losing her job and the accompanying promotion in a corporate buy out, thirty-something Emily Crawford finds herself stalled in her quest to climb the corporate ladder, earning success on her own merits, not her family name. When she learns that her beloved Aunt Sara has passed away, Emily returns to her small hometown of Woodlawn, Wisconsin.

At the reading of her aunt's will, Emily learns she has the opportunity to inherit Sara's estate if she can, within six months, show a profit for Sara's Antiques, the eclectic store her aunt started twenty years ago. Unfortunately, running a family-owned business and remaining in Woodlawn has never been Emily's goal. In fact, that was the very reason she left in the first place.

Emily's high-school sweetheart, Taylor Crawford, an adopted member of the sprawling Crawford clan, is the executor of Sara's estate. He urges Emily to accept the challenge, promising to help her make a success of the antique shop.

With no other options, Emily grudgingly agrees to take over management of her aunt's store. She struggles to learn the ins and outs of the business, but soon realizes something is missinga personal connection that would make the shop feel as much hers as Sara's. There's added pressure for Emily to remain in Woodlawn when Taylor admits he still has feelings for her.

A mysterious journal may hold the secret for Emily to carve out her own place in Woodlawn and accept the precious gifts awaiting her. Can the magic of a small town, loving friends and family, and an unexpected inheritance lead to the fulfilling life Emily never imagined?
