About this book

When a country music superstar finally comes home to Wintergreen, Missouri, she discovers that all the fame and fortune in the world can't fill the void she's been carrying in her heart. Reconnecting with her roots—and with the boy next door who never left—Mac begins to see her simple hometown through fresh eyes, realizing that the life she's been chasing might have been waiting for her all along. As she lets her guard down and allows herself to be vulnerable again, a slow-burning connection reignites with someone who's known her since before the spotlight found her. It's a beautiful reminder that sometimes coming home means finding the love that was there waiting all along.

Spotify
nostalgictenderyearninghomecominggently sensual

Acoustic guitars, warm indie folk, and country-soul vibes. Think nostalgic yet hopeful—fingerpicked melodies, intimate vocals, and that bittersweet ache of coming home. Soft sensuality woven through acoustic ballads and gentle indie pop. Fireflies and front porches.
