   Summary

   Lilah has always felt more at home in the quiet of the forest than anywhere else, raised on old magic and the kind of solitude that settles deep into your bones. Mystic Falls was meant to be temporary. A simple job, a place to pass through, but the town has a pull she can’t quite explain. Its magic is louder, messier, tangled up in people who feel everything too deeply and hide even more. As Lilah finds herself drawn into their lives, or more into friendships she didn’t expect and a connection she can’t ignore, she begins to wonder if she was ever meant to leave at all.
