The Place You Call Home

Grab a glass of iced tea, find a spot on the back deck, and come along with author Allison DeRosia as she takes you on a cozy summer trip to Northern Michigan.

This sun-soaked, nostalgia-laced romance follows a single mom and a man who is hoping just for a chance with her.

Hannah Dorada has always been something to someone. A sister, a daughter, a wife, a mother. Now divorced and a single mom before thirty, she isn't sure of her next role. So, when her sister calls on her for help, Hannah doesn't hesitate to pack up her daughter and a bag to travel to the northern Michigan cabin her sister calls home.

However, it would be a lie to say that was Hannah's only motivation to go visit the small town of Green Branch for the week.

Tanner Auclair has loved Hannah from the moment he met her on a rooftop in Chicago two years ago. Little do their family and friends know that they have kept in touch all this time and in recent months, their friendship has turned into something deeper.

Going through a divorce and raising a daughter on her own hours away from his hometown has made it easy to stay just friends with Tanner. But now, a week-long trip turns into a summer-long adventure where the line between just friends and more blurs between the two, even with the ultimate return date on Hannah and her daughter's trip.

Will the promise of a new start be enough for Hannah? Or will her fear keep love at arm's length?

The Place You Call Home, is a nostalgia-soaked story that will have you swimming in tension, vulnerability, and intimate softness. This slow atmospheric journey explores what it means to break relationship patterns, chose yourself, and let yourself be loved.
