Twenty Seconds to Love Him (The Bartender Chronicles #1)

Bodie
Bryce has been my constant for as long as I can remember. He’s my best friend. That's all. When my girlfriend breaks up with me, claiming I'm in love with him, I panic at first. Bryce reasons with me and we both laugh it off—until I can't any longer. The lines between friendship and something deeper begin to blur, and suddenly everything feels different. As he pushes back for the sake of saving our friendship, I’m left wondering—what if I miss out on what we could’ve become?

Bryce
Bodie has always been my anchor in a way no one else ever was. When things shift between us, fear makes me hesitant. I’m not sure risking our friendship is worth exploring this any further. Choosing him in ways I never have before may destroy me if I ruin it. I have truths I keep buried, secrets that still own too much of me. As we step into something new and uncharted, things become clearer—until the universe decides to test us. Can our love withstand what tries to break us apart?
