Campfire Kisses: A Small Town Second Chance Sapphic Romance

By: Adline Hart

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Park ranger Paloma Mendoza has built a life around the things she can count on: the trails she knows by heart, the campers she guides every season, and the quiet certainty of Maple Bay. For eleven years, she has told herself that staying was the right choice.

Then Gracie Lin comes back to camp.

Gracie left Maple Bay at eighteen without saying goodbye, chasing a life beyond the small town she once loved. Now she’s returned for the summer as a visiting counselor, and the past Paloma spent years carefully packing away is suddenly standing right in front of her.

Working together is supposed to be simple. Professional. Temporary.

But late-night campfires, sunrise canoe rides, and the familiar pull between them make it impossible to pretend nothing ever happened.

Gracie says she’s done running.

Paloma wants to believe her.

The problem is, Paloma already knows what it feels like to be the one left behind.

In Maple Bay, second chances don’t come often. When they do, you have to decide whether you’re brave enough to take them.

It took 11 years

Paloma may be mad at Gracie, but she never really stopped wanting Gracie. 11 years later Gracie comes back into her life, and while she's mad at her she finally lets the truth come out of what exactly happened.

Mature content barely rates a 🌶️

The lousy virtual voice makes it really hard to get into the story.
