Reckoning

From the moment thirty years ago when Tate Bandy warned his classmates of the deadly tornado that destroyed their Ozark school, everyone knew he was different. Gifted—or cursed—with visions of what others couldn't see, Tate saved lives, but the town branded him the devil's child. Shunned by neighbors yet sought out in secret for his gift, Tate grows up carrying the burden of knowing too much.

The only constant in his life is Briar Lowe, the girl who stood by him when others turned away. Through storms, betrayal, and danger, their friendship grows into a love fierce enough to defy family, prejudice, and the violent threats drawn by Tate's reputation.

But when enemies close in, Tate must decide whether his gift is a blessing or a curse—and whether protecting Briar means letting her go. Together, they'll discover that love is the one future even fate cannot take.
