Days later\, her blood was found in a car\, a man was arrested\, and the case was swiftly closed. In the decades since\, Claire has attempted to forget her traumatic past by moving to the city and climbing the ranks as an investigative journalist… until an unexpected call from her father forces her to come back home and face it all anew.With the entire summer now looming ahead—a summer spent with nothing to do in her childhood home\, with her estranged mother—Claire decides on a whim to accept a seasonal job at Galloway Farm\, a muscadine vineyard in coastal South Carolina less than an hour away from where she grew up. At first glance\, Galloway is an idyllic escape for Claire. A scenic retreat full of slow-paced nostalgia\, as well as a place where her sister seemed truly happy in that last summer before she vanished\, it feels like the perfect plan to pass the time.  \n\n\n\nHowever\, as soon as Claire starts to settle in\, she stumbles across an old diary written by one of the vineyard’s owners\, and what at first seems like a story of young rebellion and love turns into something much more sinister as it begins to describe details of various unsolved crimes. As the days stretch on\, Claire finds herself becoming more and more secluded as she starts to obsess over the diary’s contents… as well as the lingering feeling that her own sister’s disappearance may be somehow tied to it all.Galloway was supposed to be a place to help her move forward\, but instead\, Claire quickly finds herself immersed in her own dark and dangerous past. \n\n\n\nMeet Stacy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSTACY WILLINGHAM is the New York Times\, USA Today\, and internationally bestselling author of A Flicker in the Dark\, All the Dangerous Things\, and Only If You’re Lucky. Her debut\, A Flicker in the Dark\, was a 2022 finalist for the Book of the Month’s Book of the Year Award\, Goodreads Choice Best Debut award\, Goodreads Choice Best Mystery & Thriller Award\, and ITW’s Best First Novel Award. She currently lives in Charleston\, South Carolina\, with her husband and daughter and their Labradoodle\, Mako.

Plagued throughout her life by mysterious dreams\, and always living in the shadow of her beautiful sister\, Addie\, Phoebe eventually moves to the West Coast\, as far from her family as possible. Now\, years later\, she is summoned back to South Carolina\, to help Addie care for their ailing mother. \n\n\n\nAs Phoebe’s return lures her back into deep-rooted tensions and conflicts\, she is drawn to Celeste\, whose granddaughter went missing years ago. Their connection brings comfort to Phoebe\, while Celeste’s adult grandson Liam resurrects complicated emotions tied to Phoebe’s past. \n\n\n\nBut the longer Phoebe spends in her childhood home\, the more her recurring nightmares intensify–bringing her closer to the shocking truth that will irrevocably change everything. Unfolding against the lush backdrop of the South Carolina Lowcountry\, That Last Carolina Summer is an unforgettable story about the unbreakable bonds of family and the gift of second chances. \n\n\n\nKaren will be in conversation with Mary Alice Monroe\, whose own newest book releases May 13\, Where the Rivers Merge: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKaren White With almost two million books in print in fifteen different languages\, Karen White is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of 36 novels. Although most of her growing up years were spent in London\, England\, Karen’s roots run deep in the South where many of her novels are set.  Her intricate plot lines and compelling characters charm and captivate readers with just the right mix of family drama\, mystery\, intrigue and romance. Her books—referred to as “grit lit” (Southern Women’s Fiction)—have been nominated for numerous national awards\, including the SIBA (Southeastern Booksellers Alliance) Fiction Book of the Year. When not writing\, Karen is reading\, bird watching\, and avoiding cooking. She and her husband have two grown children and a spoiled Havanese dog\, Sophie. She divides her time between Atlanta\, Georgia and the northwest Florida coast. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom New York Times bestselling author Mary Alice Monroe comes her highly anticipated Where the Rivers Merge\, the first of two epic and triumphant novels celebrating one intrepid woman’s life across multiple generations in the American South. \n\n\n\n1908: The Lowcountry of South Carolina is at the cusp of change. Mayfield\, the grand estate held for generations by the Rivers family\, is the treasured home of young Eliza. A free spirit\, she refuses to be confined by societal norms and spends her days exploring the vast property\, observing wildlife\, and riding horses. But the Great War\, coastal storms\, and family turmoil bring unexpected challenges to Eliza\, putting her on a collision course with the patriarchal traditions of a bygone era. \n\n\n\n1988: At 88\, Eliza is the scion of the Rivers/DeLancey family. She’s fought a lifetime to save her beloved Mayfield and is too independent and committed to quietly retire and leave the fate of the estate to her greedy son. She must make decisions that will assure the future of the land and her family—or watch them both be split apart.  \n\n\n\nSet against the evocative landscape of the twentieth-century Lowcountry\, Where the Rivers Merge is a dramatic and sweeping multigenerational family story of unyielding love\, lessons learned\, profound sacrifices\, and the indomitable spirit of a woman determined to persevere in the face of change in order to protect her family legacy and the land she loves. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMary Alice Monroe is the New York Times bestselling author of 30 books for adults and children. She has earned numerous accolades and awards including induction into the South Carolina Academy of Authors’ Hall of Fame\, the Southwest Florida Author of Distinction Award\, South Carolina Award for Literary Excellence\, RT Lifetime Achievement Award\, the International Book Award for Green Fiction\, and the Southern Book Prize for Fiction. Monroe is a co-founder of Friends and Fiction and serves on the South Carolina Aquarium Board Emeritus\, The Leatherback Trust\, The Pat Conroy Literary Center Honorary Board\, and Casting Carolinas Advisory Board. She resides in South Carolina and North Carolina with her family. \n\n\n\nBUT WAIT\, THERE’S MORE!\n\n\n\nJust had to share these graphics of books by both authors… THAT’S A WHOLE LOTTA’ SOUTHERN FICTION Y’ALL!

SUMMARY:Launch Party! Author Dan Leach w/ Junah at the End of the World
DESCRIPTION:We’re super excited to welcome author Dan Leach to Main Street Reads for the launch of his new novel\, Junah at the End of the World\, releasing June 17th from Hub City Press. You’re invited to meet Dan\, enjoy wine and appetizers\, and grab a signed copy of this remarkable new release!!! \n\n\n\nWhen twelve-year-old Junah Simmons walks into his middle school classroom in September 1999\, the chalkboard reads THE END OF THE WORLD IS HERE. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the months leading up to Y2K\, Junah’s eccentric teacher tasks each of her students to make a time capsule in a shoe box to document their experiences in South Carolina at the end of the world. \n\n\n\nJunah is an outsider at school\, the kid in sunglasses with a speech impediment. Through the time capsule project\, he sifts through the tough stuff: his parents divorce; Rusty\, the school bully; Sadie\, his punk crush who doesn’t know he exists; his mother’s pressure on him to turn to Jesus; his worry and loneliness. Rendered in vignettes and scraps\, this kaleidoscopic novel follows Junah as he confronts the catastrophes of youth while wrestling with the notion that the world itself could end in December. \n\n\n\nFunny\, soulful\, and timely\, Dan Leach’s Junah at the End of the World reminds us that it’s only after accepting the world’s end that we can discover what it means to truly live. With the wit of George Singleton and the punk charm of Sam Pink\, Dan Leach is a writer to watch. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDan Leach has published work in The Massachusetts Review\, The Southwest Review\, and The Sun. He has two collections of short fiction: Floods and Fires (University of North Georgia\, 2017) and Dead Mediums (Trident\, 2022).  \n\n\n\nIn 2023\, Texas Review Press chose him for the Southern Poetry Breakthrough Award and released his collection Stray Latitudes (2024). He lives in the lowcountry of South Carolina and teaches writing at Charleston Southern University. \n\n\n\nWe can’t wait for you to meet this author and read this book!

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Signing: Meet Wes Browne\, Grab They All Fall the Same!
DESCRIPTION:Screenshot\n\n\n\nJoin Wes Browne at Main Street Reads during Summerville’s Third Thursday celebration on Thursday\, May 15th\, for a special signing of They All Fall the Same. It’s a Game Night themed Third Thursday downtown\, and this twist-filled tale of power\, loss\, and survival is the most dangerous game of all. \n\n\n\nMeet the author\, grab a signed copy\, and enjoy a thrilling night where the games are afoot and the stakes couldn’t be higher! \n\n\n\n\nNamed one of 2025’s biggest thrillers by Goodreads \n\n\n\nNamed a most anticipated 2025 book by Book Riot\n\n\n\n\n“Browne draws on his experience with the Appalachian criminal justice system to infuse the narrative with striking and authentic details… Exciting action and strong emotional pull…Fans of Eli Cranor will devour this.” –Publishers Weekly  \n\n\n\n“A dark gritty slice of Rural Noir that goes down smooth but has a hell of a kick\, like a strong shot of high-quality bourbon. Wes Browne takes you on a walk through the Kentucky hills and down dusty back roads where justice\, revenge and regret are uneasy allies.” — S.A. Cosby\, NYT bestselling author of ​All the Sinners Bleed  \n\n\n\nAbout the Book:\n\n\n\nThey All Fall the Same\n\n\n\nWes Browne crafts a gritty\, emotionally complex thriller set in the underbelly of rural Kentucky’s cannabis trade. At the center is Burl Spoon\, a longtime crime boss whose empire\, built on green profits and hard fists\, begins to unravel when a personal tragedy collides with a deadly business rivalry. \n\n\n\nBrowne’s prose is lean but layered\, laced with the urgency of noir classics and the raw familial drama fans of S.A. Cosby and Eli Cranor will relish. As Burl’s daughter falls victim to fentanyl-laced heroin and a trusted associate turns up dead\, his thirst for revenge pits him against a rival drug clan\, setting in motion a dangerous game with devastating stakes. \n\n\n\nBeyond the satisfying tale of vengeance\, this novel a meditation on the weight of legacy\, fractured love\, and a man clinging to his last chance at redemption through the eyes of his six-year-old granddaughter\, Chelsea. Browne paints his characters with brutal honesty and a surprising tenderness that lingers long after the final page.

SUMMARY:Book Signing and Salon: With Lisa Weldon and Twenty Pieces
DESCRIPTION:We’re thrilled to host a very special event with author Lisa Weldon\, celebrating her powerful memoir\, Twenty Pieces. \n\n\n\nTHE EVENTJoin us at Main Street Reads for a free\, open-to-all book signing where you can meet Lisa and grab a signed copy of Twenty Pieces — a beautifully honest memoir of reinvention\, resilience\, and the winding streets of New York City. \n\n\n\nThen\, beginning at 4:00 p.m.\, we’ll transition into an exclusive salon-style discussion with the author\, complete with wine\, special treats\, and thoughtful conversation. Only 20 spots are available (20 people for Twenty Pieces — makes sense\, right?)\, so be sure to reserve quickly! \n\n\n\nBonus: The salon will include a unique activity and some truly fantastic takeaways you won’t want to miss. We can’t wait to see you there and join in this unforgettable afternoon of conversation\, and connection as we share: What is something you’d like to accomplish\, but have always been afraid to do\, or felt insecure about doing? \n\n\n\n\nGrab your SALON tickets HERE!\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Book:At 58\, Lisa faced the collapse of her marriage\, home\, and career — but instead of crumbling\, she chose curiosity. A solo month in Manhattan becomes her classroom\, her canvas\, and her catalyst for change. This memoir is raw\, real\, and pulsing with hope — the kind of story that stays with you and begs to be shared. \n\n\n\n\n“Weldon’s journey stands out in the memoir genre by telling the story of a life-changing 30 days rather than a years-long undertaking\, which is likely to inspire readers to be able to take on their own manageable challenges. Weldon’s humor and vulnerability make her someone readers want to root for and allow her to feel like a treasured friend.”  – Booklife / Publishers Weekly \n\n\n\n\nAbout LisaLisa Stapleton Weldon\, a graduate of Auburn University\, has spent a lifetime in advertising in Atlanta. Her hobby? Walking cities and sharing the stories she finds. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAt age 58\, Lisa took a month out of her life to learn the new tools of her trade\, social and digital media. She sliced of map of Manhattan into 20 pieces\, with the goal of walking: one piece per day until she covered the entire island. At night she pored over instructional videos and blogged about the neighborhoods she’d walked. The following year she replicated that 30-day journey in Paris\, and has since walked Shanghai\, Istanbul\, and several counties in Central America.  \n\n\n\nHuffPost has featured her walk of Paris on the front cover of the “Living Fearlessly” section. Oprah’s network Harpo Productions invited Lisa to be a guest with Cindy Crawford. She currently contributes travel content for Melissa Gilbert’s Modern Prairie online community. \n\n\n\nHer current project is Blood Sisters\, a story of a forbidden friendship during the Civil Rights Era. Her greatest joys in life? Her three grown children and a brand-new grandson!

SUMMARY:Third Thursday February: Celebrating Kitty Springs
DESCRIPTION:Join your neighbors in Summerville’s ultimate monthly block party\, this month celebrating the life and legacy of Catherine “Kitty” Springs – a Summerville innovator and an original “hat lady” – don your fascinators and join the FUN! \n\n\n\nShe was a milliner\, a wife\, a business owner\, a land owner\, and a mystery today\, if not in her own time. \n\n\n\nA free person of color\, she married a white man 19 years her elder. They lived openly in Summerville in the mid-1800s\, surely an unusual occurrence according to Dr. Ed West in his presentation on entrepreneurs at Third Thursday at the Summerville Dorchester Museum. \n\n\n\nHer name was Catherine Smith until she married Richard Springs\, but everyone called her Kitty. Born in 1834 in the St. Stephen area\, she was one-half full-blooded Indian on her mother’s side. \n\n\n\nAn ambitious young woman\, Kitty moved to Charleston and opened a clothing and millinery shop. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShe was very good at what she did\, so good that she moved to Summerville to create another successful clothing business there. According to West\, researchers believe Kitty and Richard worked and lived in the area of Second North and Cedar Streets. \n\n\n\nOver time Kitty bought a considerable amount of land around the current county offices and Hutchinson Square — also unusual for a woman of color in the 1800s. She became a philanthropist in 1880\, when she donated property for a school and chapel to serve disadvantaged children\, particularly American Indian or biracial children. \n\n\n\nBut her most famous and visible contribution to Summerville is the little white church with the red door\, the Church of the Epiphany on Central Avenue\, across from the Timrod Library. \n\n\n\nThe couple is still together\, buried side by side in the Old White Meeting House and Cemetery on Dorchester Road. Her story continues to fascinate and inspire people today just as much as it did then. \n\n\n\nThanks for this contribution from Dr. West\, a historian for Dorchester County as well as the town of Summerville. A member of the museum board\, he is a frequent speaker as part of the museum’s series on local people and historical events. \n\n\n\nThe talks are free and open to the public at 6 p.m. on Third Thursdays at the museum\, which is located at 100 East Doty Avenue next to the railroad tracks.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Signing! Girl From the Red Rose Motel
DESCRIPTION:Screenshot\n\n\n\nCome party with your neighbors in downtown Summerville on Third Thursday\, and stop by Main Street Reads to get a personally signed copy of the award-winning Girl From the Red Rose Motel by Susan Beckham Zurenda! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSusan will be on hand that evening to meet fans and sign books and tell you more about her great work – don’t miss the fun! \n\n\n\nImpoverished high school junior Hazel Smalls and privileged senior Sterling Lovell would never ordinarily meet. But when both are punished with in-school suspension\, Sterling finds himself drawn to the gorgeous\, studious girl seated nearby\, and an unlikely relationship begins.  \n\n\n\nSet in 2012 South Carolina\, the novel interlaces the stories of Hazel\, living with her homeless family in the rundown Red Rose Motel; Sterling\, yearning to break free from his wealthy parents’ expectations; and recently widowed Angela Wilmore\, their stern but compassionate English teacher. Hazel hides her homelessness from Sterling until he discovers her cleaning the motel’s office when he goes with his slumlord father to unfreeze the motel’s pipes one morning. With her secret revealed\, their relationship deepens.  \n\n\n\nAngela-who has her own struggles in a budding romance with the divorced principal-offers Hazel the support her family can’t provide. Navigating between privilege and poverty\, vulnerability and strength\, all three must confront what they need from themselves and each other as Hazel gains the courage to oppose boundaries and make a bold\, life-changing decision at novel’s end.  \n\n\n\nGripping and richly drawn\, The Girl from the Red Rose Motel explores the complex bonds between adults and teenagers and the power of the families we both inherit and create. Inspired by the author’s experiences teaching in a South Carolina high school\, the novel is also an unflinching\, authentic look at the challenges faced by America’s public school teachers and the struggles of the thousands of homeless children in motels who live\, precariously and almost invisibly\, amid the nation’s most affluent communities.

SUMMARY:Book Signing: Lowcountry Lost by T.I. Lowe!
DESCRIPTION:We’re delighted to host author T.I. Lowe at Main Street Reads September 29th\, to celebrate the launch of her newest hit\, Lowcountry Lost. Treats will be on hand and you’ll have the chance to meet this popular author of two bestselling novels\, Indigo Isle and Under the Magnolias. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“T.I. Lowe delivers a soul-stirring\, unforgettable romance\, pairing a couple’s redemption story with the restoration of a deserted town.” BookPage\, starred review \n\n\n\n“…[A] heartfelt tale of loss\, healing\, and second chances . . . this story will also attract the HGTV crowd\, particularly fans of shows like Fixer Upper and Home Town.”Booklist \n\n\n\nSometimes what haunts you most is wondering what could have been. \n\n\n\nAvalee Elvis prides herself with being able to fix just about anything. . . except her past. Unable to put the puzzle of her life together\, she pours heart and soul into making neglected places whole again. As the owner of Lowcountry Lost\, Avalee spends her days in hot-pink Carhartt overalls and a tool belt reclaiming Lowcountry properties. Making them beautiful again releases the deep sigh that soothes the hurt she holds. \n\n\n\nAvalee’s latest project takes her to tiny Somewhere\, South Carolina\, a long-abandoned town. She ignores its ghostly folklore but can’t miss the shock of hearing the familiar Irish brogue that materializes on the job site—the voice of the man she never wanted to see again. \n\n\n\nRowan Murray is a structural engineer hired by investors to oversee the redevelopment of the quaint downtown Avalee is bringing back to life. Once upon a time\, he was also the man who knew Avalee better than anyone else—or so he thought. Six years ago\, neither of them was prepared for the tragedy they would face together or what would happen in its wake. But as they work together to complete the rehabbing of Somewhere\, their broken pieces and the pain that nearly consumed them begin to lose its grip\, and both begin to wonder if it’s not too late for a restoration of their own. \n\n\n\nFrom the author of the breakout Southern fiction bestseller Under the Magnolias comes a story of loss and abandonment\, forgiveness\, and the beauty of undying love. \n\n\n\n\nContemporary Southern romance with a second chance romance trope\n\n\n\nSpecial features include: discussion questions for book clubs\, recipes\, and a playlist inspired by Avalee and Rowan’s love story\n\n\n\nContains themes of loss and restoration\n\n\n\nFor fans of HGTV shows like Fixer Upper\, Home Town\, and Good Bones\n\n\n\n\nT. I. Lowe is an ordinary country girl who loves to tell extraordinary stories.She is the author of twenty novels\, including the bestselling Indigo Isle; the 1 international bestseller and critically acclaimed Under the Magnolias; and her debut breakout\, Lulu’s Café. She lives with her husband and family incoastal South Carolina. Find her at tilowe.com or on Facebook (T.I.Lowe)\,Instagram (tilowe)\, and Twitter (@TiLowe).
