Synopsis

Cassie Madison has it all: a high-powered advertising career, a stylish Manhattan apartment, and a sophisticated, rich, and gorgeous fiance. It's a far cry from her childhood in Walton, Georgia, home of the annual Kudzu Festival and hot, sticky summers. And then there are all the bad memories, the heartache. When Cassie's estranged sister calls to say that her father is dying, Cassie knows it's time to set aside her feelings and go home and face the sister she hasn't seen in 15 years. When her father dies, he leaves the family home to Cassie, who can't wait to get rid of it and get back to New York, her job, and her fiance, even if it means having a developer tear down the house. But something keeps her in Walton, and she doesn't know if it's her mending relationship with her sister; the irresistible, aggravating Sam Parker, who wants her to preserve her house; or the feeling of finally being home.

Imagine a Hallmark movie, but as a book. If you don't know what I mean by that, let me assure you that the Hallmark channel has tons of movies that center around some of these same themes: big city is bad, career-oriented thinking is bad...well, you get the picture. The following quote stunned me: "H......more

Goodreads review by Kim on January 21, 2011

For the most part, the plot was entirely predictable (and seemed like a pretty close cousin to "Sweet Home Alabama"). But it was so beautifully written, that I let the author take me there. Even if I saw what was coming, I still wanted to be swept away into the world that White creates. White does "......more

I really enjoy Karen White's writing style. A cute, sometimes funny, sometimes sad story set in a charming small town in Georgia. Cassie Madison left 15 years ago for NYC after her sister eloped with her boyfriend. She comes back to town to visit her ailing father. She begins a journey of bonding wi......more

Goodreads review by Anita on October 18, 2010

Lately I have been very choosey about ARCs that I agree to read. I find that it is a very narrow road for me, whether I will like a book or not, and I am not the kind of person who enjoys simply saying "I do not like this book," because someone took the time and energy to create the characters and t......more

Goodreads review by Dee on April 23, 2017

There are so many stories of girl leaves home to escape something then comes back due to some tragedy. Why do I keep reading them? Ms White's "Falling Home" is an excellent reason why. I was first intrigued when I read the author's notes that the edition I was reading was a release of a previous ver......more
