What Happened to Erin?

What Happened to Erin?

by Mbali Mgoqi

Six childhood friends enter the woods, but only five come out. The disappearance of Erin Lockwood is shrouded in mystery and casts a dark pall over the once-safe small town of Braidwood. The only ones who know the truth are shackled to oaths. They cannot break the two laws. For seven years, the horror of what they saw and what they caused wrenched them apart. They tried to live normal lives, tried to forget. But the sins of their past have caught up to them. The group is forced to reunite after one of them vanishes without a trace in the same place that Erin was lost: in the woods. It’s not a coincidence. It’s a summons.

All About the Timing

All About the Timing

by Charlene Gravely

Jenny isn’t new to heartbreak—but this is different. One man pushes her to explore her boldest, rawest desires. The other? He sees parts of her soul she’s never shown anyone. Torn between heat and heart, she’s trying to follow her instincts… but timing has other plans. As passion tangles with compassion, and lust collides with loyalty, Jenny starts to realize that the choices she makes now could shape everything. What happens when the man who sets your body on fire isn't the one fate gave you? And when the right moment... just won't come?

Highland Magic

Highland Magic

by Aimee Ginger

Gillian has no one left. Her mother died shortly after she was born, her father died when she was a young child, and now she’s lost the man who raised her as his own. She is drowning in grief. So she decides to leave her life behind and try to find her roots. She doesn’t even know if she has a family, but she knows her parents left Scotland and ran away together before she was born. So she travels to the Scottish Highlands looking for a past she’s never known. She never could have anticipated the way the sexy Scotsman with a tingling touch would invade her heart and mind or finding the family she never knew was waiting for her. But is this all too perfect to be her life, or should she trust in the Highland magic?

Moonshot

Moonshot

by Ronja T. Lejonhjärta

Colt has always known what a moonshot is—the dream so impossible it hurts just to want it. For him, that dream has always been Zoey, the girl who was off-limits, the one he teased, the one he secretly protected. Now she’s no longer just his best friend’s little sister; she’s the woman who makes his carefully built world tilt on its axis. Zoey’s presence pulls him into a whirlwind of heart and heat, where desire feels dangerous but irresistible. Wanting her is reckless, but not wanting her feels impossible. Can a soul-deep yearning ever be enough to bridge the distance between what’s forbidden and what feels fated?

I Don't Belong Here

I Don't Belong Here

by Tayla Grossberg

I can see ghosts, but my sister doesn't believe me, and my parents won't listen. The only ones I can talk to are my Grandmother May and my dog, Amore...until Dimitri. He's tall and beautiful, but beyond that, he's the kind of understanding friend I never thought I'd have. I can confide in him—I can trust him with anything. But Dimitri has secrets of his own, and some secrets are meant to come out...no matter what.

The small-town setting creates natural opportunities for chance encounters and community events that bring people together. Local gossip adds both humor and tension as relationships develop under watchful eyes. The appeal lies in the slower pace and deeper connections that small communities foster.
