Where Robins Sing

Set in the small southern town of Granville, Tennessee in mid-1970’s through the mid-1980’s, Where Robins Sing is the story of how small-town football hero Trevor Daniels and the gorgeous but wild and outspoken Darcy Wood, who has just moved to town from a big city up north with her mother, meet during their senior year in high school and fall in love. Written in the tradition of The Bridges of Madison County and The Notebook, the story is told in first person.

Trevor is the clean-cut, high school football hero who attends church regularly. Darcy is the very worldly outsider who routinely shocks the town’s residents with her irreverent and over-the-top antics. Despite their differences—or perhaps because of them—the two soon fall in love. After a roller coaster affair that has as many highs as lows, they ultimately decide to get married shortly after graduation. But through an unforgivable indiscretion, the wedding plans are dashed. With wounds that run deep, they both leave town after graduation, vowing never to return.

But as fate would have it, a decade later, they reunite and find the embers of love still burning. This time, however, it’s much more than puppy love. But although they’ve both matured in many ways—especially Darcy, who’s less the rebel—they must yet find a way to get beyond the hurts in their pasts and their current life challenges to truly find a deeper and lasting love.
