The Last Porch Light By Delfina Robichaux   Some lights welcome you home. Others warn you away.   When she left her small Louisiana hometown, she swore she'd never look back. But thirteen years later, the porch light at her mama's sagging blue house is still burning - and so are the questions she never dared to ask.   Back for the funeral and burdened with the deed to a house full of ghosts, she finds a tin of letters hidden under the bed.
Some are to strangers, some to no one at all - and one addressed to "the daughter I once had."   As whispers travel faster than the tide in this tight-knit bayou community, she navigates old feuds, the watchful eyes of neighbors, and the slow unraveling of family secrets. Every visit to the market, every porch-step conversation, every faded photograph pulls her deeper into a story she thought she'd left behind.   Told with the dry humor and unflinching eye of a woman who knows both the sweetness and sting of home, The Last Porch Light is a slow-burn Southern drama about belonging, forgiveness, and the cost of carrying someone else's idea of who you should be.   For readers who love the grit of small towns, the pull of family ties, and the kind of secrets you can only find by coming back - even when you promised you wouldn't.
