Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Safety is easy to recognize.Risk is harder to measure.Cassidy Holt has built a life that works.She teaches math at the local high school. She knows the rhythms of Whisper Creek by heart. Her days are predictable, stable, and carefully balanced-exactly the way she likes them.Then Avery Doyle arrives.Avery travels for work, moving easily between towns and timelines, comfortable with motion in a way Cassidy has never needed to be. Their connection is immediate but unforced-something real that fits neatly into the space Avery occupies while she's there.Until it doesn't.As Avery comes and goes, Cassidy begins to notice what safety costs when it becomes default-and how distance, even when expected, can quietly demand justification. What begins as a manageable arrangement becomes a question Cassidy can't solve with numbers alone.Wildfires and Wanderlust is a quiet, emotionally grounded novel about negotiating safety and risk, about relationships that don't fail but still ask something difficult of the people inside them.This is not a story about choosing between staying and leaving.It's a story about learning when effort becomes misalignment-and when love's purpose is not to last, but to clarify.
