Never Just Friends

A previous cover edition for this ASIN can be found here

I swore I’d never touch him… now I’m living in his cabin, wearing his shirt, and trying not to fall for my brother’s best friend.

He’s grumpy, guarded, and still unfairly hot. Cruz Maddox—my brother’s best friend—once called me a hurricane in heels. I called him impossible. We were both right.

When my hotel reservation falls through at my brother’s engagement party, I’m stranded. Cruz offers me a place to stay… for one night. But a summer storm turns one night into a week of forced proximity, candlelit power outages, and a whole lot of unresolved tension.

We bicker over music, toothpaste, and where I put the salt. He’s all walls and routine. I’m chaos with neon luggage. But somewhere between sarcastic banter and late-night confessions, the lines start to blur.

Then comes the kiss that changes everything. And the night that makes us both forget why this should be off-limits.

I thought I could walk away. But the truth is, I’ve finally found the one place I want to stay. And if I leave… I’m not sure either of us will recover.
