The Summer Series, Book 4

Emerson Hughes, a woman focused on revenge, finds herself drawn to Liam Doherty, the very person she intends to destroy. Destroying other people won't make you feel better, which suggests you've never destroyed an enemy before. In fact, it's quite fulfilling.

Emerson comes from Elliott Springs, a small town with charming cobblestone streets and picturesque scenery – things she doesn't particularly care about. What she does care about is getting her revenge. No matter how compelling she finds Liam, the man dedicated to saving Elliott Springs, she is determined to get what she wants.

Liam wonders what to call a woman who wishes to destroy everything he loves, yet her mere presence sets him ablaze. Is she his nemesis or a potential future wife? Given Emerson's eagerness to leave California, Liam knows the answer. Emerson is intent on becoming the villain in their town's history, and the more Liam learns about her past, the more he understands her motivations.

Liam's initial goal was to save Elliott Springs, but now he finds himself wanting to save Emerson even more. The town's small-town values and charming atmosphere mean little to Emerson, whose mind is fixated on vengeance. Yet, Liam is drawn to her in a way he cannot explain, despite her destructive intentions.

Destroying an enemy can indeed be fulfilling, as Emerson has discovered. However, the satisfaction it brings is often fleeting. Liam hopes to show Emerson that there are other paths to healing and peace, ones that don't involve tearing others down. As he delves deeper into her past, he becomes increasingly determined to reach her, to understand the root of her desire for retribution, and to offer an alternative.

The contrast between Emerson's thirst for revenge and Liam's desire to save both her and their town creates a compelling dynamic. Their story is one of conflicting goals, personal demons, and the power of human connection to transform even the most hardened of hearts. As their paths continue to intertwine, the question remains: will Emerson choose to embrace the chance for redemption, or will she stubbornly cling to her quest for vengeance?
