Tackling Lightning Bugs (Forever Safe Summer II #8)

Bryce

Mallory, my best friend, my biggest fan, my cheerleader, my next-door neighbor since the day we were born and… my soulmate. She was my reason for living. My reason for working my ass off to get to the NFL. She didn't know I did all of this for her. So that I could give her the world. She didn't know because I didn't tell her. I didn't want her to follow after me and not pursue her own dreams. I always planned to tell her though. Unfortunately, when I let my Bug go free she found someone else. Now, I have to watch her light up someone else's life like Lightning Bugs in a Mason Jar. Watch her live our future with someone else… or is it all a misunderstanding?

Mallory

Backyard tea parties, Friday night football games, graduations. We were together for them all. Mal and Bryce. We were each other's everything until we weren't. Until we both had to grow up and leave our small town. Leave each other. Then before I knew what was happening he found someone else. He found her and I was left to suffocate. Feeling like I was trapped in a jar with no way out and no holes to breathe through. But life isn't always as clear as a mason jar and sometimes you have to open the lid and let everything fly free before you truly understand what you’ve had all along. What's been there in your own backyard, flickering like a light just waiting for you to catch it.
