To Catch a Firefly by Emmy Sanders (Paperback)

He was my beginning. And my never-ending. A standalone MM childhood-friends-to-lovers romance from Emmy Sanders, told in dual POV.

There’s a lot Ellis has never told his best friend. That he loves him. That he misses him every day he’s gone. That, sometimes, he aches for him with a ferocity that leaves him breathless.

Lucky Buchanan tore into Ellis’s life as a boy — wild, daring, his opposite in every way — and stole his heart without even trying. Lucky hears him, even though Ellis rarely says a word. But Ellis always knew this small place would never be enough to hold his free-spirited friend, and that Lucky was never his to keep. So why, just as he’s finally trying to move on, does Lucky sweep back into town? Why does he seem upset? And why, for the first time in years, is there tension crackling between them?

Ellis never imagined a future where Lucky could be his. But now, unless he’s willing to lose his friend for good, he may have no choice but to tell the truth: his heart has belonged to Lucky from the very start. If only he knew how to hold onto a creature that’s meant to fly.

Expect epic levels of pining, a neurodivergent lead with selective mutism, two friends who always find their way back to one another, glass hearts, romantic declarations, and a happy-ever-after beneath the night sky.

Perfect for readers who love a slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance, aching mutual pining, tender queer love stories and a guaranteed HEA.
