Every Jack Needs His Jil (Stardust)

Two lonely guys, two unforgettable gals, and a town full of "stardust"...Texas will never be the same.

It's the modern-day Wild West when two wandering black sheep return to claim the women they left. Difficult women. Jileana has spent years pining for Jack, while at the same time praying she never sees him again. Mind you, she has her reasons, and they're good ones. But not good enough to withstand the impact of an old man's deathbed confession. Now long-lost Jack is back. And Jil's about to take the tumble of her life!... Meanwhile, Harper pursues Evangeline, who chased him off decades ago (she had her reasons, too). He's hoping to bury the hatchet, but fifty years hasn't been quite enough time for Evangeline's temper to cool, and the only place she wants to bury it is in Harper's head. Both couples have an uphill climb ahead of them. The road to love is a madcap obstacle course, but at least it runs through the right little town...dusty Star, Texas, a place where hearts can heal and dreams really can come true.
