Bright Midnight

A wildly romantic novel about a young American in Norway who runs into the man who broke her heart eight years ago.

After years of bartending her way across Europe, Shay Lavji has seen almost everything the continent has to offer, but there's one country she hasn't crossed off her bucket list: Norway. It's not that she doesn't want to visit the land of the midnight sun—far from it; she's obsessed with the culture and is dying to see the majestic fjords for herself.

What she's not dying to do is run into her Norwegian ex-boyfriend, Anders Johansson, who broke her heart in America eight years ago before returning home. The last time she saw Anders, he was a cocky, rebellious, and tortured teenager who couldn't stop himself from pushing all of her buttons—both good and bad. But Shay isn't going to let Anders stand in the way of her wanderlust, and besides, it's a big country…right?

She doesn't count on Anders seeking her out the moment he learns she's on his home turf. When Shay sees him again, she's shocked at his transformation into a bearded, tattooed farmer and fisherman who values family over everything else. Is it possible that time has tamed this former bad boy? Shay wants to believe everything can be new and bright again under the summer sun, but she knows, when it comes to Anders, that darkness is never too far behind.
