About this ebook
Garland, Derby, and Triple Clark spend each season traveling highways and byways in their Rambler—until summer, when small-town Ridge Creek, Virginia, calls them back. There they settle in, selling burgers and fries out of Garland’s Grill after each game the Rockskippers play in their battered minor-league baseball stadium. Derby’s summer traditions bring her closer than she’s ever been to a real home that isn’t on wheels, but this time, her return to Ridge Creek reveals unwelcome news. Now the person Derby loves most in town needs her help—and yet finding a way to do so may uncover deeply held stories and secrets.
Told in Derby’s unforgettable voice, this warm-hearted debut novel is about taking risks, planting roots, and discovering the true definition of home.
It’s one summer of baseball, burgers, and big secrets.
- A Strong Heroine: Meet Derby Christmas Clark, a girl with an unforgettable voice who lives on the road in an RV but is ready to plant some roots.

- A Story of Healing: Derby's quest to help her grieving friend, June, rallies the entire town and uncovers long-held secrets.
- Small Town Summer: Filled with hometown baseball games, a food truck run by family, and the magic of a close-knit community.
