for Mrs. Stevenson in The Otherworld
Suggested by aribookworm301
Orca Monroe wants only one thing for her eighteenth birthday: to visit the mysterious mainland, known as the Otherworld—a place her father has always forbidden. Raised in a lighthouse on a remote island, Orca’s life changes when she finds a cell phone washed ashore and connects with Jack Stevenson, whose brother, Adam, vanished in a seaplane crash. Determined to help, Orca searches the island and, during a storm, finds Adam unconscious at her door. As she nurses him back to health, an undeniable bond forms between them—but with a ten-year age gap and her father’s strict rules, Adam knows their connection can’t last. He returns to the mainland, but Jack, unaware of the growing feelings between them, invites Orca to leave the island and finally see the world. But the Otherworld isn’t what she dreamed of—it holds secrets darker than she imagined. And the two brothers she helped reunite may be the very ones she’s destined to tear apart.
