When Jeremy receives a letter from Boone Creek, North Carolina, inquiring about phantom lights in a graveyard, he can't help but take a trip there to look into it. Lexie Darnell is the librarian for this little town in this close-knit neighbourhood. She has been unsatisfied with previous relationships, but she is certain of one thing: her future is in Boone Creek, close to everyone she loves. Jeremy is intrigued as soon as he sets eyes on Lexie. And even though Lexie is reluctant to put her faith in this stranger, she can't help but think about him frequently. Now, Jeremy needs to do something he's never done before: take a huge leap of faith, if they are to be together.
