Books like Sweet dreams at the Goodnight Motel by Curtiss Ann Matlock
Looking for Real LifeThe scrawled graffito on the bathroom wall might be cliched, but for Claire Wilder, it's a wakeup call. Divorced from her high school sweetheart, she's lost the flavor of life waiting for Andrew to come back. Claire leaves everything behind and ends up in her father's hometown of Valentine, Oklahoma. Before she knows it, an overnight stay at the Goodnight Motel has turned into weeks, and she's found something she'd almost forgotten existed—a place to call home. Life is sweet again...until the day her exhusband arrives in town. Now Claire has to figure out whether home is truly where the heart is...and if that's with Andrew or in the sleepy town that helped her remember her dreams.
