The Next Flame
ByPublisher Description
Here are New York Times bestseller Penelope Douglas’s two bestselling novellas in the Fall Away Series, together in one volume for the first time.
AFLAME
All through high school, Jared Trent called the shots. He decided if Tatum Brandt would be happy or sad, fearful or free. He owned her heart, and he played with it like one of his cars. Never again.
Two years ago, Jared left town, and Tate’s life is exactly where she wants it to be. Or that’s what she tells herself...
Because two years ago, her heart also stopped beating, and no matter the success in school or the support of her friends, there’s only one time every week she can feel that same rush in her blood: Friday nights on the track.
That’s hers, not his, and to hell with anyone that gets in her way again. Especially him.
NEXT TO NEVER
Under the close watch of the men in her family, Quinn Caruthers has found it nearly impossible to spread her wings—or even date—without her three older brothers, Jared, Madoc, and Jaxon, jumping in to hover. And when a family friend—several years older—from her childhood still holds her heart, she knows they’re going to be a problem. Lucas Morrow is a man, and knowing her brothers, he may as well be forbidden.
But Lucas left town and shows no signs of returning. Quinn knows she shouldn’t wait for him anymore....
Until a package turns up on her doorstep with no return address and its contents reveal family secrets that threaten to turn her world upside down. She’s never asked about the path of her parents’ romantic history, but she soon learns their happy marriage had a very rocky and passionate start.
As she starts to see things around her with new eyes, Quinn will have to make tough choices about whether she’ll keep waiting...or finally go after what she really wants.

“Aflame- hated how easily Tate took back Jared after what he put her through. So annoying! Have a spine like you did in highschool!
Next to Never- spelling/sentence errors were annoying.
Did enjoy to see what the kids were up to”
“This was the Tiffany bow I needed on this series, specifically Aflame. As it brought back that fire, I'm more than positive everyone loved it from the beginning of the series. Even the shitty things happen for a reason, and maybe it's because sometimes it needs to get worse before it gets good.”
