The Rooms We Leave Open

Description

Micah Freeman wrote the book on living your best life. He just forgot to live his own.

A bestselling author with millions of followers and a calendar full of keynotes, Micah has spent a decade teaching strangers how to find purpose — and avoiding the small Virginia town that raised him. But when he comes home for his father’s seventy-fifth birthday, the quick visit he planned begins to unravel. Pops’s health is failing. His brother’s patience has run out. And Shayla — the woman he left behind — has built a life that never needed him.

Then a key lands in Micah’s hand — a key to the door of a boarded-up hall where generations of Gladys Creek once gathered to sing, to speak, to be heard. Restoring it could save the town’s heart. But it will demand the one thing Micah has never given anyone — the choice to stay.

A warm, big-hearted debut about family, forgiveness, and the rooms we leave open for the people we love.
