All Things New

by Julie Mellon

Love can overcome generations of hate. What makes one twin worthy of love but not the other? It’s a question that has plagued Autumn Childers her entire adult life. She’s successful, has a business that she loves, and more friends than she can count. Secretly, she knows something is missing, and she envies her sister for finding love without really even trying. But, this is Fog’s Edge – the smallest town in history, where everyone is already with someone – or so it seems, and leaves Autumn wondering how she’s ever supposed to find a date, let alone someone to marry. Life after the Army hasn’t gone as planned for Webster Riley. At eighteen, he’d joined the military with the intention of doing one tour and returning home to work for his grandfather’s construction company. Twenty years later, he’s now retired, but his grandfather and the company are both long gone. At a loss, and at his buddy’s urging, he travels to Fog’s Edge to see if the town is all it was promised to be. Web comes to Fog’s Edge for a new start, yet the last thing he expects is to find a woman who is just as perfect as the town. But life is never quite so easy. Despite their attraction to each other, something is holding Autumn back. To make matters worse, the entire town seems to be against him almost from the start. Turning the tide of public opinion might be more than either Autumn or Web are capable of, but making the investment could bring them the happiness they’ve both longed for.

About the author

Julie is a native of Central Kentucky. After receiving her degree in English, she chose a career in higher education finance. Fifteen years later, she decided to allow her inner creative genius loose and began writing. She has been an avid reader her entire life, with a special love for mysteries, so she thought it fitting to make her first novel one of suspense. Growing up as an Army brat, she has lived in several states and foreign countries. To this day, she enjoys traveling to new places and experiencing new cultures. When at home she is likely to be found enjoying a few extreme sports, such as: rock climbing, scuba diving, or whitewater rafting. Her willingness to enter into activities of mortal peril is balanced by her commitment to ensure the quality of life for animals through her service with various dog rescue organizations. She now lives in Middle Tennessee with her two dogs, Ginny and Luna.
