About The Prodigal:
**Formerly published as "The Butterfly Bride" with minor edits.**

Bullfighter Luke Starr has been estranged from his family since the accident that cost his best friend his life. When his grandmother is injured and he’s forced to return home to take a turn watching over her, he comes face to face with the tragic past he’s done his best to avoid. And a sweet-hearted schoolteacher who makes him wish he was a different man. One who could deserve her.
