4. Welcome Home

   About Welcome Home:

   Nine years ago, all of Bubba Clark’s dreams were about to come true. He was about to become the first member of his family to graduate from college, and all of the professional football scouts said he was about to become a millionaire in the NFL.

   But then his world turned upside down.

   One mistake unraveled all of those dreams. The guilt and shame his mistake left in its wake were strong enough to chase Bubba away from school, away from his hometown, and away from his loved ones.

   Now, though, a family emergency has pulled him back into the world he left behind.

   When Bubba’s father suffers a stroke, he has no choice but to return to tiny Curtinville, Texas, and take over as the man of the family. But with so many Curtinville football fans unable to forgive him for screwing up nearly a decade ago, it’s a responsibility that’s a whole lot tougher than Bubba ever could have imagined.

   For the first time in nine years, Bubba is forced to confront the feelings he has buried for so long – feelings that become even more confusing when a beautiful blonde catches his eye.

   Will Bubba rise to the challenge? Or, will his past ruin his future?

   Author. Dreamer. Entrepreneur.

   That’s how Jessica Kelly describes herself. Just like the main character in her first book, Trick Play, Jessica believes that hard work is the key to success. Luckily, though, creating new characters and new plot twists doesn’t feel like work to her! Jessica has always had a passion for writing, and she has dreamed of becoming a successful author for more years than she can count.

   So what about the “Entrepreneur” part?

   That proves just how serious Jessica is about turning her dream into reality. Her goal isn’t to write a book or two in her spare time. Instead, she’s focused on building a successful writing career from the ground up. She’s not content to JUST have a dream. She’s willing to do whatever it takes to make it come true.

   Jessica began living the dream the moment she started writing Trick Play. When she’s not dreaming up new story ideas, this native Floridian can be found spending quality time with friends and family, soaking up the sun on the beach, and — of course — reading.

   Jessica loves hearing from her readers. Connect with her on Twitter at http://twitter.com/WritingJessicaor on Facebook at http://facebook.com/jessicakellyauthor.
