Everyone has a favorite season.
For Everlee Bennett, it's fall, with the crisp air, oversized sweaters, pumpkin spice lattes, autumn themed nails, candlelit nights, haunted houses, tarot cards, and enough Halloween decorations to turn her home into a witch's cottage come to life.
She's sunshine wrapped in an autumn aesthetic. Warm, bubbly, unconventional, and just a little bit too much for the people who don't know what to do with a girl who refuses to dim herself.
Then one ordinary night, a wrong number changes everything.
What begins as an innocent conversation quickly becomes something neither of them expected. There's an undeniable connection in the darkness between two strangers who should have never found each other.
He sees something in Ever no one else seems to notice.
She sees something in him she can't quite explain.
And as the leaves fall over Blackwood, the line between comfort and danger begins to blur.
Because some people enter your life to love you.
Some enter it to ruin you.
And sometimes...
the monster hiding in the dark is the one who makes you feel safest.
