It’s 1999, and curvy funny girl Evianna Moore is about to celebrate her 99th birthday. But rather than the wrinkled nanna she should rightfully be, Evi appears to be only 30 years old. She has a medical condition, which means she does not age. Her hidden condition is rare, feared and misunderstood by most of the world, and Evi is used to living on the fringes of life, never able to make truly deep connections. When she meets Matt, a sexy and enigmatic city mayor, her heart begins to dream of the life they might share together in the new millennium. But will Matt discover her secret? And can love can survive when it can never age evenly?

Two years after her mother passed away from breast cancer, Shayla finally decides to sell the beach house that she spent many summers at while growing up. Going back to Wilmington, North Carolina wasn’t supposed to be complicated, but after eighteen years, she realizes that the house is alive with forgotten feelings from a much simpler time. While packing up her old room Shayla stumbles upon a diary left by an innocent seventeen-year-old girl on the cusp of adulthood who wrote down every thought and every feeling from that faithful summer. It was the summer when she experienced her first sweet love—and her first very real and very painful heartbreak. Now Shayla finds herself surrounded by memories she’d rather leave behind, but now that she’s holding them in her hand, she just can’t seem to let them go. “Southern Lights” is a story about the power of first love, and proof that over time, absence truly can make the heart grow fonder.
