* Amazon Title: Holler Homecomings: Hearts Healed Through Generations (Holler Flame Echoes – Timeless Returns Book 8)
Rebecca Harris returns to Holler Home for the town’s centennial carrying archival gloves and memories of the fire that claimed her parents. The quiet archivist expects only records and ghosts, until she meets Eric Clark again—the boy who once took her to prom and now serves as the town’s stressed but charismatic mayor.
Eric needs her skills. The founding charter has vanished, a land dispute threatens the municipality, and wealthy descendants are pressuring him to stop digging. Rebecca is reluctant to open the town’s past, fearing it will only reopen her own pain, yet Eric challenges her to protect the legacy they both share.
Working side by side in dusty basements and hiking to the ruins of the first settler’s cabin, old laughter returns. A missing map, a sudden storm, and one rain-drenched kiss remind them that the history they are saving is also their own. When the charter is finally recovered from its hidden cornerstone, Rebecca must decide whether to remain a curator of the past or become the director of a future built with Eric.
As the centennial gala unfolds and the town cheers, Eric asks her to stand beside him not only as the keeper of Holler Home’s stories but as his partner for every chapter still to come.

Stephanie Clark –
I didn’t expect the centennial lights strung along Main Street to feel like lanterns from another time, but they did—Rebecca steps back into that glow and suddenly Eric is there too, older now, yet still the one who once pinned a corsage to her dress under the bleachers. The town’s history seems to live in his careful hands, every plaque and story he tends echoing the same hush that settles over the hills when the last parade float rolls away. Something about the way the night air keeps its cool even after the crowds thin made me linger on those quiet sidewalks long after I closed the book.
