Secret Nights and Northern Lights
by Megan Oliver
Childhood best friends and first loves are reunited on a make-or-break work trip to Iceland, with old feelings coming to the surface in this charming romance from debut author Megan Oliver. Mona Miller lives her life by platitudes: she's just fine, thanks; all good; not a problem! Everything is right as rain--even if it's all a lie. Everyone at the travel magazine where she works knows her as a team player (in other words, the one who won't complain about the endless fluff pieces pushed her way). But, feeling snubbed after being passed over for a promotion, Mona jumps at an international assignment to Iceland, even though she's woefully unprepared. She's determined to prove her worth, though, and her can-do attitude will scale any glacier. But the freelance photographer paired with her is none other than Benjamin Carter. Ben, her childhood best friend who understood her even when her family didn't. Ben, her first love--first everything. And Ben, the boy who ghosted her fourteen years ago and left her brokenhearted. There is a decade's worth of resentment Mona needs to ignore if she wants to make it through this trip. She'll put on her No worries! façade and hold Ben at a distance. But the more time they spend together, the more the ice around her heart melts. And as those old feelings spark back to life, Mona must decide if she's willing to go on the biggest adventure of all.
