Close To Home - Pamela Cook

Returning home might save the town—but could cost her everything. Orphaned as a teenager, veterinarian Charlie Anderson built a life on her own terms—far from the fractured family she left behind in the rural town of Naringup. But when a suspected Hendra virus outbreak draws her back to Naringup, Charlie is forced to face the very past she thought she'd escaped. Returning means confronting the people she walked away from: a cousin she left behind, an aunt whose choices shattered her world, and a tangle of grief and resentment she’s kept buried for years. As panic over the outbreak grows, Charlie teams up with local ranger Joel Drummond—whose easy warmth and unruly family offer a glimpse of the connection she’s longed for. When tensions reach breaking point, Charlie must decide: will she find the courage to heal old wounds, or walk away for good—and risk losing the only family she has left? Close to Home is a standalone novel in The Homecoming Collection – an emotionally layered, page-turning story of family, resilience, and the ties that pull us back home. _______________________________________ Praise for Close to Home: ?????
