Sophie Jones

Lake St. James returns to Camp Starry Nights hoping for a clean break from heartbreak, drama, and everything that has left him questioning who he is.

Familiar paths lead to familiar faces, including one person Lake never expected to see again. Old feelings stir beneath quiet glances and shared spaces, turning nostalgia into something deeper and harder to ignore. As the summer unfolds, Lake finds himself navigating past wounds, present tension, and the fragile hope that maybe some stories deserve another chance.

Catching His Songbird

Jane Anne

One night. One mistake. One baby they never planned.

Wren doesn’t do relationships. She does control, independence, and very clear boundaries—especially with Morgan, her best friend and the one man who’s always been off-limits.

Until the night everything changes.

Morgan has loved Wren for years, but one reckless decision pushes them from friendship into something far more dangerous—something neither of them is prepared for.

Because what starts as just sex quickly becomes something neither of them can control.

And when Wren disappears… she’s not just running from Morgan.

She’s carrying his child.

Now forced back together, secrets unravel, past betrayals come to light, and the lines between love, lust, and loyalty blur beyond repair.

But some connections were never meant to stay platonic.
