Overview
Ex-best friends who longed for more reunite to bring down a cult in this spicy romance brimming with Southern charm from the author of The Jezebel List.
Five years after escaping from Ascension, a religious cult targeting new adults, Bree Camden has rebuilt her life, all with a new city, a steady job, and a reliable boyfriend who checks all the boxes. Nothing gets a rise out of her anymore—until her ex-crush goes viral for whistleblowing the cult where they first met.
Nathan Bell can no longer stay silent. After plenty of therapy and soul-searching in the four years since leaving Ascension, he’s ready to speak out against the institution that continues to harm his small town and drove away the woman he loved.
In a fit of dangerous emotions, Bree flies home to Georgia and lands on Nathan’s doorstep with a proposition: work together to bring Ascension down. They haven’t seen each other since she begged him to leave the cult with her nearly five years ago. Their mutual attraction still lingers—but were their feelings ever real or just a product of their shared trauma?
When a carload of ex-cult members shows up seeking solace, Bree must choose between staying with Nathan to help them deconstruct, or returning to her reliable, predictable life. And as Bree and Nathan navigate their new mission and rekindled friendship, their complicated feelings for each other only get more difficult to ignore.
A heartfelt novel about embracing your full self, The Ex-Cult Halfway House is perfect for fans of the second-chance romance in Happy Place and the deep yearning of The Night We Met.
