A beautiful firefighter and her computer-savvy friend are on the hunt for an arsonist in this suspenseful Christian romance. Firefighter Ivy Beria is recuperating from injuries sustained on the job when she finds her neighbor Moe, a kindhearted savant, setting fire to a book. Before Ivy can figure out why he’d do such a thing, Moe goes missing—and his only friend turns up dead. Ivy is sure the double mystery is linked to the string of numbers Moe chanted before he vanished. When she asks her best friend, computer expert Tim Carnelli, to help her investigate, they make two shocking discoveries: Moe is in danger, and they have unexpected feelings for each other. Now Ivy will have to rely on Tim—and rediscover her faith—in order to keep the truth—and their dreams—from going up in smoke.

Losing weight over the summer gains Serena some popularity, but it also means discovering first-hand the pains of being a fifteen-year-old girl in a world that both sexualizes and shames young women. After narrowly avoiding exploitation in a short-lived relationship, Serena aligns with a new friend who was the victim of an explicit image that was shared at school. When Serena finds herself in a relationship with a new guy, she is surprised to find a different set of expectations. But have her previous experiences damaged her too much to make it work? As Serena struggles to find who she is as opposed to who she is expected to be, she begins sighting Devin — her older brother who disappeared months earlier.
