Denise Hunter Synopsis: Sweetwater Gap is a standalone title by Denise Hunter. Josie Mitchell’s sister Laurel thinks she’s come home to pitch in with the apple harvest and save the family orchard. Her brother-in-law Nate thinks she’s there to talk the overworked, very pregnant Laurel into finally selling the family business. The orchard’s new manager Grady Mackenzie just thinks she’s trouble with a capital T. They’re all right… and all wrong. Because no one really knows what drove Josie from home in the first place. Why she’s never come home before, even for her own father’s funeral. Why she pushes herself so hard… and what she’s running from. And nobody, not even Josie, is prepared for the surprising new fruit she’ll find on her last trip home.
