Mad in Mississippi and Rain Down on Me

From a New York Times–bestselling author, two novellas featuring southern women who have loved and lost—and are surprised by a second chance at romance.  Mad in Mississippi   Bitsy Yarborough believes she’s played her cards right by marrying her high school sweetheart and settling down to a sweet life in her small southern hometown. Until she discovers, on the night of her fifteenth wedding anniversary no less, an unrecognizable lipstick shade on her husband’s collar and a blue pop-off nail in his tighty whities. Shocked to the core, Bitsy knows revenge is the only answer for the scoundrel she vowed to love forever. So she hires local PI Fisher Means to help build a case against her cheating husband and his harem of hussies. Only to discover she might have a few tender feelings left in her heart—for a man who is most definitely not her husband. . . .  Rain Down on Me   A life of solitude in a remote cabin in the Ozarks is all Skye Raley wants after the devastating loss of her husband.  Until the self-sufficient widow encounters a man stumbling across the road in a thunderstorm, injured and in need of care. Once Skye opens her home to Max Bridger, healing his wounds and hearing the stories of his own lonely life, she discovers a connection to the rugged military man she never dreamed she’d have again. But once the rain stops and Max returns to his world, will her heart ever be content again?   “Sharon Sala is a consummate story teller. . . .
