Plot Summary: To Catch a Firefly by Emmy Sanders

Lucky and Ellis have always been each other’s safe haven. From growing up in small-town Nebraska to late-night adventures under the stars, their bond has been unshakable.
 
Ellis, a neurodivergent man with selective mutism, has never needed words to communicate with Lucky—his best friend, his confidant, and the boy who’s always been able to hear the words he doesn’t say. But Ellis knows Lucky is destined for more than their quiet hometown can offer, and letting him go was always part of loving him.

This slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance, To Catch a Firefly is a heartfelt story of love, longing, and finding a soulmate – someone who loves you exactly as you are.
