title: Something to Prove
author: Lang, Kimberly
description: In the small beachfront town of Magnolia Shores, Alabama, people may forgive, but they never forget--especially when it comes to scandalous reputations, juicy gossip, and a sexy new flame.
  
  Former wild child Helena Wheeler was happy to leave behind her hometown--and her sordid past--for Atlanta twelve years ago. But when her grandmother suffers an injury, Helena has no choice but to return, even if it means facing down all the people who have shunned her.
  
  Ryan Tanner went from being a football legend in high school to Magnolia Shores's young, hot bachelor mayor. As a teenager, he never wanted anything to do with a girl like Helena. But when she hires Ryan to do some construction in her grandmother's house, he finds that she's grown up into a different person--one he quite likes.
  
  For Helena, confronting her past has its share of surprises--and falling for the resident golden boy was "definitely" not on her to-do list. But will her reformed ways be enough to get her back in the town's good graces, or will her reputation keep Helena and Ryan apart for good?
