    About this audiobook

    NAACP nominee and USA Today bestselling author Beverly Jenkins celebrates her beloved Blessings series with a heartwarming novel set in Henry Adams, Kansas.

    “If you haven’t yet gotten your hands on [this] author’s work, you should do so immediately.”—Shondaland

    Citizens of Henry Adams, Kansas, know there’s never a dull moment in their small town…

    Trent July has been the mayor of this historic town for the past four years, but now he’s ready to let someone else take up the mantle. Barrett Payne, a former Marine, decides he wants the job.  But when a surprise candidate also enters the ring, the town has opinions on who would be the best candidate.

    And of course that’s not the only drama, as  Malachi “Mal” July continues to make reparations for the damage he’s caused and to the people he’s betrayed, especially his lady love Bernadine. Is she finally ready to forgive him and let the past go?

    As the residents of Henry Adams have learned, life will throw obstacles their way, but it’s how they come together and rise above these challenges that keep the bonds of their close-knit community strong.

    This audiobook includes an episode of the Book Club Girl Podcast, featuring an interview Beverly Jenkins about On the Corner of Hope and Main.
