Welcome to Litsy!

Call it Fate is a small town, second chance romance novel set in author M.E. Montgomery's all new Sterling Mill Series! Living her life by color-coded lists has gotten Emalee through the past six years. With the support of her small family, she's raised her young son while bringing her ancestral bed-and-breakfast back to its original beauty and into modern times. She's comfortable with her role until an unexpected-but familiar-grumpy, green-eyed guest walks into her inn during a late snowstorm. But the weather outside isn't the storm she needs to be worried about; it's confessing the secret she's been keeping for six years. Temporarily working in a small town nestled in the Appalachian Mountains was hardly how Zach intended to demonstrate he was the best applicant for a coveted internship. But if it proved his loyalty to his boss, he would do it better than anyone, then hurry back home for bigger and better things. He could have never imagined what was waiting for him in Sterling Mill, Tennessee: a parrot for a mayor? Thieving raccoons? Ridiculous, sure, but none of those compared to finding his old girlfriend and the green-eyed secret she'd kept from him. Painful revelations. Renewed passion. If only there weren't new circumstances destined to separate them again, they might Call It Fate.
