THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN
An eccentric millionaire's fortune could change one woman's life forever... if only she can win it!
Nothing ever changes in Redford, Georgia. It's part of what freelance editor Jess Reid loves about her hometown - and part of what keeps her from ever leaving, no matter how much she might want to. That, and her relationship with her father, a car mechanic who raised her on his own after her mom left town. Jess is resigned to a safe, unremarkable existence... until Jasper Wilhelm, the town's eccentric benefactor, dies suddenly and leaves behind the opportunity of a lifetime.
Carter Wilhelm has been too busy working long hours as a financial advisor to visit Redford, but he's heard countless stories about the town and its zany residents from his grandfather. A small, insular town in Georgia is the last place Carter expects to be spending his summer - but it seems his grandfather had other plans...
Because Jasper had one final trick up his sleeve. At his funeral, it's revealed that he's left his entire fortune to the people of Redford - but they'll have to compete for it. Jasper has devised a massive, high-stakes game consisting of several team challenges, with the winning duo taking home the prize. The catch? He's already taken the liberty of pairing them up.
But as tensions - of both the competitive and romantic variety - rise between Jess and Carter, and the life-changing prize grows closer, the two must decide what they're willing to risk for the chance at a fortune.
A love story full of spirit and hijinks, The Only Game in Town is a funny, quirky homage to the people we get to call home. This is for fans of small-town romantic comedies and feel-good women's fiction, and it's perfect for readers of Ali Hazelwood, Sally Thorne, and Christina Lauren.
Lacie Waldon is a writer with her head in the clouds--literally. A flight attendant based in Los Angeles, Waldon spends her days writing from the jump seat and searching the world for new stories. She is the author of The Layover and From The Jump.
