Stay for the Song

Touring cellist Ezra Talbot returns to Amber Falls for a two-night benefit, determined to help save the community theater’s leaking roof without reopening every old argument about why he left. Stage manager Dev Varela has three days to make the worn room sound beautiful—and years of experience making temporary visitors feel at home.

Rehearsals turn professional respect into a connection neither man can dismiss. With the roof repairs, crew funding, and Ezra’s departure all approaching at once, they must build a relationship sturdy enough for distance, honest schedules, and two careers that matter. The real encore begins after Ezra leaves the stage.

A complete high-heat MM small-town performing-arts romance with an HEA.
