"For years, tales of the Firefly Man were nothing more than elaborate rumors spread by residents of the Appalachian Mountains. Until the night Evelyn Vaughn stumbled upon a dead body in the woods. Fear gripped her, and silence stole her voice. All while she watched the boy she was with that night take the fall.
Fourteen years later, Evelyn is nothing more than a shell of her former self. Her life moves like a clock from one moment to the next, never a surprise. Gone are the days of chasing fireflies through the woods. Until her therapist goes missing and he's replaced with someone new. Dr. Lincoln Reed, a devastatingly handsome single dad with an intensity behind his evergreen eyes that jolts her back to life.
Or does it?
Evelyn is quickly losing grip of the suppressed reality she's worked so hard to maintain. With every new session on Dr. Reed's couch comes a startling new revelation that has her past awakening like the sparkles of light she used to chase through the nighttime woods.
The Firefly Man was supposed to be a rumor, a fable, a spooky tale. But Evelyn knows the truth. He's her very own phantom. And he's back.

"All Cayson Bexley ever wanted was to fly . . . Until a near-fatal crash clipped his wings, sending the injured military pilot back to his hometown and living right next door to me.
From the moment our eyes meet, the attraction is undeniable. I mean who wouldn't fall for that achingly gorgeous face, his clean-cut demeanor, and sweet, small town charm?
Other than our mutual love of music, we're as opposite as two people can be. Which is precisely why I friend-zone him the moment he shows interest. But as time goes on, my heart softens to this man who once had it all—a literal hero floundering to find his purpose.
In the midst of my own struggles, I could certainly use a friend. Heck, I could use more than that. And I'm not afraid to let Cayson know it.
When I discover my hunk of a neighbor is as shy as he is inexperienced, I offer him a distraction he can't possibly refuse. We already share a very thin wall. Why not a bed too?
There's only one catch: he'll have to promise not to fall in love with me . . . A no-strings hook-up is every man's dream, right? What could possibly go wrong?

"Benson Bexley has always had a heart of stone. Apparently nothing has changed.
When he returns home after a decade gone, I recognize him right away. How could I forget him? He's the same cocky flirt who slid dirty poetry to me in art class. With the same stone-cold stare that shielded his soul from the world. And that same sharp-edged jaw that cut straight through my heart like a dagger.
Fortunately, this time I see right through his arrogant charm. Even better, he doesn't remember who I am. I have no intention of reminding him. After all, it's only a matter of time until his nomadic lifestyle takes him away again.
When his poetic charm strikes once more, I play along. Maybe it's time he got a taste of his own medicine.
Revenge. It's not in my nature. But Benson Bexley deserves nothing less. It's time for that heart of stone to shatter.

"Anderson Bexley was the love of my life . . . or so I thought.
For years, I convinced myself that one day he would see me as more than the bubbly activities director at his family's campground. Sure, he was ten years older. Deeply tortured. And far too devoted to the family business to make time for his own happiness.
But none of that mattered. Especially after one blissful night when he was all mine. I thought our forever had finally begun, but he broke my heart instead.
A year later, I'm moving on. In a new city. At a new job. With a new man. Add in the fact that I just landed my first big account, and things can't possibly get better. Until I hear my first client is none other than Anderson Bexley.
Now, I'm heading back to a place I had once called home. Back to Camp Bexley. Back to him.
Only this time, I'm determined to walk away on my own terms . . . with my heart intact.

"Jamison Bexley is the one who got away. If only I hadn't pushed him.
Seven years ago, he was my everything. My confidant. My safe haven. My best friend. However, dating him was never an option. Not when his eyes gravitated toward every girl in town but me.
That is, until the curse of bad timing found us both . . . and struck. All it took was one night. One big mistake. Altering everything we could ever be.
I'm still paying for my sins all these years later. Life has been downright cruel. I'm working countless hours trying to hold onto the pieces of my shattered dreams. Determined that nothing will keep me from my end goal.
Until Jamison struts back into our small town and gets a firsthand glimpse of my life. Suddenly, he wants to be my knight in shining armor. But I don't need a savior.
Those moments in time are long gone. And he's about to realize why.

"Through smoke and fire, she's all I see.

"I had always known he wasn't mine to keep, but that didn't change the way I loved him—quietly, gently, and from afar.
As the seasons changed, the corn stalks grew strong, and the grapevines flourished with hope. But none of it mattered, not when the soil at our feet bound us in a century-old rivalry. We'd never even had a chance.
They said life flashed before your eyes on the way to death, but on that night, after my final scream burst from my throat and my world started to fade to black, I only thought of him. Of his sweet chocolate eyes, his desperately cautious stare, and his silence that carried more weight than gold.
I should have died that night. Instead, I crossed the moonlit bridge and never returned.
I let rivalry win. If only that had been enough to keep us all safe. If only we didn't have a bridge between us.
