There's a curfew in town, and absolutely no one goes outside after dark. Because there are things in the woods.
Who knows what's in there? No one that survives past midnight returns to explain, and if they do, they aren't the same people from before.
But then Christian Brooks comes.
He's an outsider who's new to town, and the people there want him to leave. Yet, the things in the forest want him to stay.
So much so that Christian ends up leaving the forest alive past midnight.

Third Time's a Charm ✓
[BXB] Archie Holland and Brooks Dawson decide to take a third and final shot at love. ☆☆☆ Brooks Dawson is falling apart. His mom's behavior is spiraling out of control, his best friend keeps getting him into trouble, and he's still in love with his ex-boyfriend, Archie. But when a party goes awry, Brooks finds himself in an unexpected reunion with Archie while hiding from the cops.
