RELEASE DATE: December 7, 2021

Can love secure Adrian’s wandering heart?

Roots are overrated, at least to someone like Adrian Stewart, preacher’s kid, who has never lived anywhere longer than six years. That’s why her job with MidUSLogIn is so perfect for her—lots of travel and staying nowhere long enough to have it feel like home. But when work takes her to Memphis, TN, closer to her family for the first time in years, and in the same small office as Grayson Roberts, she starts to question her job, her lack of home, and even her memories of her rocky past with the church.

Gray is intrigued by Adrian from the moment he sees her, and he’s determined to get to the bottom of why this girl who loves old movies and hums when she works won’t go to church with him. As they grow closer, he wants more, too, but how can he convince her to stay in Memphis when she doesn’t believe in home—or God? Can he use his own broken past to break through hers?

playlist for No Place Like Home

by Amy R. Anguish, author of No Place Like Home

I have to admit, I don’t normally have a playlist for my books. I’m not one of these authors who listen to a certain type of music to get in the mood to write. Instead, I let my characters dictate what happens, but that’s another post.

This latest book, however, is a bit different. My main character, Adrian, is an old musical lover and constantly hums. And when your character is always humming or watching musicals, you end up with songs being mentioned in the book. Which sets itself up for a playlist.

Add to that one scene where she participates in a program, singing for the older members of a congregation, and that throws in a few more songs. So, in order to prepare for full reading pleasure, be sure to snag some of these tunes to listen to as you discover what else Adrian likes (and dislikes) in No Place Like Home. And why her humming makes her coworker Gray so happy. 😉

  • Walkin’ in Memphis
  • Singin’ in the Rain
  • As Time Goes By
  • Unchained Melody
  • Swinging on a Star
  • A medley of songs about traveling that include ‘Come Fly with Me,’ ‘Chattanooga Choo Choo,’ ‘Surrey with the Fringe on Top,’ and ‘The Trolley Song.’
  • Anything Glenn Miller Orchestra
  • Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
  • Great is Thy Faithfulness

What do you think? Any favorite songs of yours listed there? Any others you think might fit considering the list already in place? I’m always up for learning of new great tunes.
