Synopsis

Vacations should come with a warning label. Brenna James portals back to Linneah for a surprise, romantic reunion with Baldwin. Instead, she stumbles upon him in a cozy moment with his ex. Heart? Crushed. Trust? Shattered. Sanity? Questionable. When her best friend Tiny drags her on a "road trip" to her hometown through a sketchy travel portal, Brenna's all in. Anything's better than staying in Linneah. But the friends become separated, and Brenna's kidnapped. She escapes but must take part in the dangerous event Starfall or go home, broke and alone-where everything reminds her of who she's lost. When she finally arrives in Tiny's hometown, she finds rampant sexism, vanishing drinking water, and Rune pulling the strings in the shadows. Enter Tiny's older brother-gorgeous and an expert flirt. Between fighting for women's rights and unraveling Rune's villainous schemes, Brenna's vacation is anything but relaxing. But when leadership, love, and loyalty collide, she must decide: settle for what's easy...or fight for what's right. This is a second edition with new cover art, updated content, and an additional short story.
