title: Back in Eden
author: Paisley, Linda L.
description: Wilhelmina (Willy) Heidler, a young teacher, returns to her hometown of Eden, Ohio one summer to visit and care for her ailing mother. Looking forward to a break from her more hectic life in Texas, she anticipates a restful, enjoyable few months.
   The last person she wants to meet again is Marshall Gray, her playmate and confidante from childhood. Once the best of friends, they parted under unhappy circumstances when he went off to college ten years earlier. Unbeknownst to Willy, Marsh has moved back permanently to Eden.
   Their comfortable, brother-sister relationship had changed somewhere over the years and this homecoming would be the time to face up to old hurts and misunderstandings. Can Willy be honest with her feelings and forgive the one man she could never forget?
