Childhood best friends and first loves are reunited on a make-or-break work trip to Iceland, with old feelings coming to the surface in this charming romance from debut author Megan Oliver. Mona Miller lives her life by platitudes- she's just fine, thanks; all good; not a problem! Everything is right as rain-even if it's all a lie. Everyone at the travel magazine where she works knows her as a team player (in other words, the one who won't complain about the endless fluff pieces pushed her way). But, feeling snubbed after being passed over for a promotion, Mona jumps at an international assignment to Iceland, even though she's woefully unprepared. She's determined to prove her worth, though, and her can-do attitude will scale any glacier. But the freelance photographer paired with her is none other than Benjamin Carter. Ben, her childhood best friend who understood her even when her family didn't. Ben, her first love-first everything. And Ben, the boy who ghosted her fourteen years ago and left her brokenhearted. There is a decade's worth of resentment Mona needs to ignore if she wants to make it through this trip. She'll put on her "No worries!" fa ade and hold Ben at a distance. But the more time they spend together, the more the ice around her heart melts. And as those old feelings spark back to life, Mona must decide if she's willing to go on the biggest adventure of all.

Reviews

"Olivers debut novel is a love letter to Iceland, rekindled relationships, and a sweet reminder that sometimes we need to leave to find the place that feels like home.Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"What a splendid and magical debut from Megan Oliver! Secret Lights and Northern Lights captures all the beauty and heart of traveling the world, falling in love with new places, and finding your way back to the people you're meant to love. Ben and Mona are so authentic and heartfelt, and exactly why I'm so weak for second chance romance. Iceland may be freezing cold, but this romance is scorching!"Mallory Marlowe, USA Today Bestselling Author of Love and Other Conspiracies

"Megan Oliver is an instant star; Secret Nights and Northern Lights shines as brightly as the aurora borealis itself, and the expertly crafted layers of longing and history between Mona and Ben sparkle, simmer and then blaze in this stunning debut about what it means for two people to each do the work necessary to love each other well."Audrey Goldberg Ruoff, author of Hopelessly Teavoted

" The sexy, swoony, angsty second chance romance of my dreams. Megan Oliver perfectly weaves together lush, atmospheric settings, complex characters, and tender emotions in this wise, perceptive romance about taking chances and stepping into the lead role of your own life. An absolute triumph of a debut."Heather McBreen, author of Wedding Dashers

"Secret Nights and Northern Lights is a gorgeously written love letter to Iceland and second chances...Megan Oliver hit this out of the park."Heather Frances, author of Chase Me If You Can
