"The first thing I did was ask a small jury of local fishermen, down at the market, what they thought the explanation for the suspicious activity was. They said ancient evil. They weren't joking."
With barely a moment's notice, a police investigator and his intern Ryn Cardinal are shipped off to Claremont Harbor, a small seaside town, to look into a series of mysterious disappearances. The locals, a superstitious bunch, are convinced that it's a reawakening of some ancient evil, but Ryn knows better. That kind of crap isn't real, is it?
Is it?
With help from the sheriff, a cat, and a boy from a bookstore (and absolutely no help from Dan Crosby, her useless boss), Ryn is gonna get to the bottom of this.

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl?
