Firefly Summer by Kathleen Y'barbo
Sessa is falling in love with kind, gentle Trey Brown, a doctor who can no longer hold a scalpel. When she discovers the reason---Trey used a scalpel to kill Sessa's son in self-defense-can she forgive him? Welcome to Sugar Pine, Texas, where there is one red light, one taxicab, and one grieving mama. When Sessa Chambers' teenaged son is murdered during a robbery, she is left with his baby to raise and a decision to make: could she accept a dream job restoring carousel horses for the Smithsonian, manage the ranch on Firefly Lane, and take care of a little one? The ladies of the Pies, Books & Jesus Book Club think so, and they will do whatever Sessa needs to help-even if that means hunting for a husband for her. If only she would cooperate Former rodeo star turned Houston surgeon Trey Brown is haunted by the night he killed a teenager with the same hands he uses to hold a scalpel. Forgiveness is his only hope for ending the nightmare that chases him, even though the State of Texas declared his actions self-defense, so he seeks out his victim's only living relative, his mother. Ranch owner Sessa Chambers is not at all what he expects. Her presence is more jolting than any eight-second bronc ride from his rodeo days, and the only thing he wants to do is get to know her better. She's mistaken him for the hired help, and he's fine with that. Until he finds a way to admit he killed her son, Trey will work off the guilt that has imprisoned him. In tiny Sugar Pine, everyone knows everyone else's business and most of them know the others' secret pie recipes as well. When the ladies of the Pies, Books & Jesus Book Club decide to matchmake, will the stubborn artist with the history of disastrous dates be convinced to cooperate in their schemes?
