Follow the Firefly

Finn isn’t broken…

Classmate Finn Jansen is hiding dark, dangerous secrets, and Piper Johnson knows it. She’s known from the first meeting that this boy struggles alone, and yet should she try to convince anyone the life of the popular, athletic boy isn’t what it seems? Will that hurt Finn? Or her sister Saff, who’s Finn’s best friend? Worse, will anyone believe the freaky-smart little sister when she says her sister's friend is drowning in dangerous lies?

When Finn’s home life is exposed, he thinks the nightmare is over. No more hiding. No more danger in his house. He and his brother are safe. And yet, in the midst of the celebrations, he hides the most dangerous secret of all: Finn knows he’s a monster. While his brother suffered at his father’s hands, he did nothing, wishing both brother and dad would disappear so he could live a normal life.

Now he has that life, but he doesn’t deserve it. He hides his guilt and shame, and only Piper sees him sinking. The question is whether God will give her the courage to love the high school baseball star despite himself and work with God to heal this brother who insists he’s not broken.

Follow the Firefly is book two of Terry’s Garden, stories about a huge family, an enchanting garden, and the healing power of faith and friendship. Christian coming-of-age/romance novels for teens and anyone who remembers what it’s like to take those first wobbling steps into adulthood.
