Danielle
I thought I knew what love was.
I didn’t. I gave my heart to someone who used it, abused it, and threw it back. Now I need to get myself together. Figure out my future. Running away from mother’s ultimatums only complicate matters. The answers I seek aren’t here. Quinn is. The boy next door. And those shadows in his eyes? I know them. I can relate to them.
When he offers me a job, I can’t refuse. I start to fall for him all over again. Then my ex starts texting, asking for my forgiveness. Mom demands that I come back home. For the first time, I belong somewhere.
Maybe I was searching for solutions in the wrong places. Maybe my future is right here, with Quinn.
Quinn
The moment I spot her inside my shop, I know. Danielle, the girl from my childhood summers, is back. A part of my heart heals, and yet many more pieces remain.
She’s all grown up. Beautiful. But something haunts her eyes. Except for my kid sister, there haven’t been any bright spots. Until now. Until Dani. She brings an energy to my bakery and into my life. When I believe Dani and I could have a future together, her ex comes back. How can I compete?
Some things are worth fighting for. I might have let her get away years ago, but my future is empty without Danielle.
I’ve found my forever in her. Does she feel the same?
Dental hygienist Ada Murray doesn’t believe in love at first sight. So why is she drawn to her patient, the mysterious gentleman, Mr. Ulach? Something primitive stirs inside her whenever he is around. An older, world traveler, he is different from the guys she usually likes. Should Ada trust her heart and allow herself to fall for him, or should she follow her practical mind?
But she didn't listen.
Obsessed with the local boarded-up psych hospital across the street from her house, the grounds had been her playground for years. She knew every building, tree, and even some of the spirits that floated around. The site and its inhabitants had become a sanctuary for the high school freshman.
Until one day.
When she discovers a spirit friend's plans, she intervenes, making him mad. Running off, he pursues her, chasing her as far as he's allowed. But vengeance can strengthen some spirits, a fact Amber learns the hard way. Months later, the teen understands the lengths the angry dead can go. Now Amber must figure out how to protect those she cares for. She doesn't want anyone she loves or herself becoming the newest soul trapped in the abandoned hospital across the road.
College freshman Maire returns home for Thanksgiving break to discover her abusive father is missing, and mom has redecorated. All she’s ever wished for is to see an end to the fighting. A close friend, Colton, hints that a mysterious urban legend might be real. In order for it to work, she has to be an active participant. Could this be the solution she seeks? If she doesn’t get involved, and her father returns, will things go back to the way they were? Maire struggles to make the right decision—for her long suffering family and herself.
