She and her mom return to Briar Creek, the town that they left ten years ago, never looking back. During their stay, Lexi falls head-over-heels for Gabe, the dark and mysterious guy who lives across the street and goes to the same high school that Austin went to. Lexi's Aunt Violet and Uncle Tommy insist on her staying away from him due to his violent behavior and instead urge her to pursue a relationship with Dan, Austin's best friend. In an effort to learn more about the cousin she barely knew, Lexi snoops through Austin's belongings. Soon, she begins to uncover puzzling details that make her believe that Austin wasn't really attacked by an animal the night he was killed - details that may already be putting her own life in danger. less

There's something strange going on in Briar Creek. Everyone's been quiet lately...too quiet. Lexi's fate was determined before she even arrived in Briar Creek at the beginning of the summer, and it was far more deadly than she ever could have imagined.

When Lexi and Dan were sucked into the book, they left their world as they know it behind. Stuck in a strange, new place with only each other for support, Dan and Lexi begin to confide in each other. Will they settle their differences? Or has Lexi traveled back in time with the one person in Briar Creek who had always had it out for her from the very beginning? Meanwhile, Austin, Gabe, Anna, and Craig scramble to find Lexi’s father, the only person who might know how to bring Dan and Lexi home.

Coming back to the present was the least of Lexi Hunter's problems. She has some decisions to make . . . decisions that will be life-altering. When Dan doesn't return from the past right away, Lexi begins to wonder if he even survived the attack that she nearly witnessed and struggles to find a way to bring him back as soon as possible. Meanwhile, she must decide if she wants to drink the potion that will make her an immortal... moreComing back to the present was the least of Lexi Hunter's problems.
