Romance

After years abroad, Amara returns to her homeland not just with luggage, but with old scars, unspoken regrets, and memories she thought she had left behind. What she doesn’t expect is to see Obinna—the man she once loved—still rooted in the very soil she ran from.

Set in a vibrant village where tradition walks hand-in-hand with the present, When the Drums Called Us Back is a heart-stirring tale of two souls torn apart by cultural expectations, family honor, and time itself. A chance meeting at a local festival rekindles the fire they buried years ago. But their love is no longer simple. One has changed with the world, the other remains bound by it.

As secrets surface, elders pass judgment, and a community watches closely, Amara and Obinna must decide: Will love be enough to overcome the ghosts of the past? Or will history repeat itself once more?

Blending tender romance, emotional growth, and the powerful heartbeat of ancestral tradition, this novel is a celebration of love that defies distance—and a tribute to the courage it takes to return, rebuild, and choose each other again.

Perfect for fans of multicultural romance, small-town stories, and emotional second chances.
