About the Book

Series: Melodies and Memories #1

Author: Amanda Wen

Publisher: Kregel Publications

Release Date: October 21, 2025

Genre: Split-time Romance

A split-time romance from an award-winning author

When a choral composer and conductor falls victim to creative block, he resorts to his fallback plan of teaching high school choir. Callum Knight's goal at Peterson High is simple: rediscover his muse, extract himself from teaching, and get back to Boston as quickly as possible.

As the long-suffering accompanist at the high school, Peterson-native Blair Emerson has watched the revolving door of choir directors and their negative impact on her choirs over the last few years. She is less than impressed when a disheveled Callum stumbles in on his first day.

But then they discover an unsigned, unfinished, and handwritten choral composition by a clear musical genius. Blair recalls rumors of Iris, a Peterson student from the 1970s who composed music but was found dead during her senior year. Blair and Callum work to determine if the piece is hers, and the truth they uncover shakes both of them to the core.

With rhythm and flair, Amanda Wen takes readers on an unexpected journey into the depths of a small town's history in this riveting first book in the Melodies and Memories duology.

My Thoughts

I really enjoyed this book. I found the characters real and relatable. I liked the dual timeline and found the stories not only making me smile, but also pulling my emotional heartstrings. I enjoyed the musical composition side of things and seeing the characters get swept away by the music in their minds. And I loved the high school setting and seeing characters inspired by the kids around them (I work in pediatric occupational therapy- so I enjoyed relating to how the characters lives can be changed by kids around then). After reading this book, I feel like I need ot go back and buy some of her other titles, that are listed below. I would definitely recommend this book and this author.

I did recieve a free e-copy of this book as part of this tour; however, all thoughts expressed above are my honest opinion.
