Here she is...
Years ago, Jenn Lind’s family’s dynasty crashed, forcing them to move out of their Atlanta penthouse and into a cabin in Fawn Creek, Minnesota. But Jenn saw a way out—she’d win the Buttercup Pageant, grab the scholarship, and run far, far away. The plan almost worked too, until some conniving townspeople cheated her out of her tiara. Still, she swore she’d make it out someday...
Miss Minnesota?
Twenty years later, she’s on the cusp of real stardom. She’s about to leave for New York to be crowned queen of daytime TV when Fawn Creek asks her to be grand marshal of the town’s sesquicentennial. Her network accepts, delighted over the potential PR, especially since she’ll be sharing the “honor” with international celebrity Steve Jaax, a man she got tangled up with once long ago. Between the all too attractive Steve, the townspeople, and a hundred pound butter sculpture, Jenn may never escape Fawn Creek. Or even worse, she might.

I absolutely ADORE Connie Brockway. She is fantabulous! :P Except for the out of print ANYTHING FOR LOVE, i have all her books and enjoyed all of them. Personal fave is ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT. I can't wait to get HOT DISH, it's her first contemporary. ;)

I like Brockway too! I'm glad she's finally written a contemporary romance. But does that mean she's not going to write historicals anymore because I'm very fond of her old books.

I might as well try Brockway if she is that good. :) All Through the Night it is.
