The Marine's Memorial Day Honor

A Balsam Ridge Sweet Holiday Romance

De: Tessa Wilde

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

After eight years as a Marine, I'm back in Balsam Ridge with more emotional baggage than I packed when I left. The familiar streets feel different now—or maybe I'm the one who's changed. All I know is that civilian life doesn't fit quite right, and I'm not sure I belong anywhere anymore.

Then there's Olivia Bennett, my childhood best friend who's now the town's beloved elementary school teacher. One look into those familiar blue eyes, and suddenly I'm remembering promises made under starlit skies and feelings I never had the courage to admit. When Mrs. Thompson volunteers me to help with Olivia's class project for the Memorial Day celebration, I find myself unable to say no.

Working with Olivia and her students awakens something I thought I'd lost overseas—purpose, joy, a sense of home. But the shadows of war still follow me, and opening up means risking the walls I've built to protect us both. When I'm asked to speak at the Memorial Day ceremony, I'm forced to confront what coming home really means.

As parade floats are built and flags are raised, I discover that the path forward might be leading me back to where I started—to an abandoned ranger station in the woods, to the town that never stopped waiting for me, and to the woman who's always held my heart. But am I brave enough to fight for the future we could have, or will I retreat from the most important mission of my life?

Welcome to Balsam Ridge—a cozy small town where the seasons change beautifully, the community rallies together, and love can heal even the deepest wounds. Here, everyone looks out for each other, and finding your way home is always possible, especially when Mrs. Thompson has a plan.

The Marine's Memorial Day Promise is a sweet and clean romantic novella about courage, healing, and the promise of new beginnings.
