Flying Solo by Linda Holmes

When Laurie travels back home to pack up her beloved aunt's house she feels a plethora of emotions. While she loves seeing her childhood best friend and her high school crush who is now the hunky town librarian, she is used to flying solo and living an independent life on the other coast. She finds a wooden decoy hidden in her aunt's trunk and the mystery of where it came from and why it was hidden away proves to be a welcome diversion to packing until a conman grabs it. The three dive in like it was a Nancy Drew mystery and in the process of getting the duck back Laurie finds that it might not be a bad thing to be a pack animal instead of flying solo once in a while. Sweet romcom that checks off all the boxes - small town, good friends, hunky librarian and the message to find love wherever you can. Fans of Emily Henry, Robyn Carr and devout watchers of the Hallmark Channel will flock to it.  4 stars
