Melanie Louise McCarthy has spent her entire life avoiding her past. However, when her life suddenly changes, she realises she can't move forward without backtracking. When her son decides to go and live with his father, Mel doesn't know what to do next, when an unexpected inheritance forces her to return to the Yorkshire village where she grew up. The very village she fled from twenty years ago, following a scandal that the locals still remember all too well. Returning home is not easy. Mel's mother passed away when she was sixteen, and afterwards, she lived a wild life, breaking hearts and burning bridges before leaving as quickly as she could. Since then, she has barely set foot back in Greenleigh. The village may not have changed much, but has Mel? Everyone remembers the exploits of Melanie McCarthy. Her first love Chris Oldswick has not forgotten or forgiven her for their painful breakup. The house she's inherited is more chaotic than ever. Jamie Hirst is still giving her that look and Mel quickly becomes the subject of village gossip again following a disastrous New Year's Eve proposal. Determined to leave as soon as possible, Mel finds herself stuck by a mountain of clutter and a series of needy animals. During her unexpected stay, she comes to realise that she must make amends for her past. What she doesn't anticipate is how quickly she starts to embrace life back among the hills, reconnecting with old friends and reliving memories of her family.She has spent her life running from her painful past, but could it be that home is where she truly belongs? The Track Back is a contemporary romantic comedy that explores themes of first love, second chances, grief, the value of old friendships, and the true meaning of home.
