Description

What can be more boring than covering the local produce festival? Reporter Scott Reneau's world changes forever when local history mixes with Michelle Butler, the newsroom wallflower, to explode in an uprising of emotions in The Watermelon Riot. Old letters drew Scott Reneau from his high paying journalism career in Portland Maine to the small southern town of Gallatin, Arkansas. Now working for a rural paper, he found himself demoted and again staring at a pile of old letters. Michelle Butler was a local girl from the top of her cinnamon head to the soles of her café au lait feet, but she'd been burned by big city dreams and men. When she decided to take a chance on Scott by sharing her family's passionate history, she hoped to catch the sexy reporter's eye, but her grandparents had other plans in mind. Will he be able to realize there is more to local history than boredom? Can he fight the fire within that the caramel colored beauty stirs up in The Watermelon Riot?
