Chloe McIntyre has it all-until she drives away the only man she's ever loved. Chloe and her beau, Matt Cooper, pledged to be life partners after having twin daughters. But now he wants marriage with a ring and longs for a traditional family life on the 617 Ranch. She believes saying I do will only lead to divorce. Chloe's attempts to find balance include planning her brother's wedding and opening an animal therapy center, but she instead undermines Matt's patient and romantic nature. The consequences and losses derail their quest to build the future they dreamed of. What is her life's purpose? The answer lies in Matt's final offer, which delivers a surprise Chloe never expects.

How much will Chloe McIntyre and her mother, Brook, sacrifice to rebuild their relationship? CHLOE MCINTYRE, expectant momma, invites her Hollywood fashion designer mother to the Montanafamily ranch, knowing it's time to make amends after a three-year rift. As Chloe and her mother strive tostart over, they quickly discover that letting go of past hurts is easier said than done. Brook's workaholiclifestyle leaves little room for mother-daughter time, and Chloe's impulsive nature to fix what she seesas her mother's shortcomings create added tension. Just as Brook finally expresses the maternal emotion Chloe craves and acceptance breeds a newfoundtrust, Brook's hidden agenda is revealed. Chloe's instinct to protect the wranglers she oversees, herhome and her heart leaves her mother with an ultimatum: to stay and to stick with theircompromise-or cut ties for good. Chloe and her mother must come to terms with what they can't change in order to accept an outcomedefined by tough love.

The theme selected for the 2019 EuroCALL conference held in Louvain-la-Neuve was 'CALL and complexity'. As languages are known to be intrinsically and linguistically complex, as are the many determinants of learning (additional) languages, complexity is viewed as a challenge to be embraced collectively. The 2019 conference allowed us to pay tribute to providers of CALL solutions and to recognize the complexity of their task. We hope you will enjoy reading this volume as it offers a rich glimpse into the numerous debates that took place during EuroCALL 2019. We look forward to continuing those debates and discussions with you at the next EuroCALL conferences

The 26th EUROCALL conference was organised by the University of Jyv skyl (JYU) Language Campus and specifically the Language Centre. The theme of this year's conference was 'Future-proof CALL: language learning as exploration and encounters', which reflects an attempt to envision language teaching and learning futures in a changing world. What brought researchers together this year are shared concerns in relation to the sustainability of language learning and teaching in technology-rich contexts that are marked by ever-increasing complexity. The collection of short papers in this volume is a very thorough view into the conference proper exhibiting the complexity and novelty of the field of CALL. There are exciting new openings and a more profound exploration of theoretical underpinnings of the contemporary issues in teaching and learning, cross-cultural communication, mobile learning and the like.
