Fireflies

by Dixie Painter

Sometimes it takes losing your way to find where you truly belong... For the past year, grief has been Brandon Murphy's entire world. After the shocking loss of his closest friend, he locked himself away from the world--and from the people who needed him the most. Until a letter from the most unexpected source reminds him that he wasn't the only one left devastated by Cody's death. When her late husband's best friend shows up, Chelsea Clendenin turns him away. After a year of no contact, she's infuriated by his insinuation that she needs him--or any man for that matter--to care for her and her son. But despite her animosity, Brandon refuses to back down. And as he chips away at Chelsea's anger, they both begin to wonder if there might be more between them than friendship and their shared grief... When you've lost so much, it's hard to trust in anything, or anyone. Sometimes it takes faith, hope, and a little extra love to believe again.

heart warming

Dixie never disappoints me with her stories. She always dives deep into her characters and brings them to life. She doesn’t gloss over the pain or the joy and draws you into the characters journey. Brandon and Chelsea’s story is full of such a range of emotion from deep sorrow and pain to all encompassing joy and love.

Fireflies is a must read

Fireflies is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read. I laughed, I cried...may have been an ugly cry. It touched my soul. May we all have the village that Brand , Chelsea and Asher have family and chosen family.
