The last time I saw him, he had a fiancée. Now, I’m staying at his house, forced to pretend I’m not still in love with him.

Returning home was never part of my plan, and seeing Linc is the last thing I wanted. But now, I’m trapped under the same roof with nowhere to run, while my brother, Nate, has no idea I’m secretly in love with his best friend.

With Jack, my fake boyfriend, by my side, I thought I could survive my parents' vow renewal and seeing Linc again. Yet, every moment with him makes it harder to deny the feelings I tried so hard to bury.

Linc’s jealousy over my pretend relationship is palpable, and as we grow closer, the tension between us becomes impossible to ignore. But as Nate’s suspicions grow, so does my guilt.

I’m torn between the man I love and the loyalty I owe to my brother. I can’t let this turn into a disaster that destroys their friendship or puts Nate in the middle.

Caught between a love I can’t confess and a family I can’t afford to lose, I have to make a choice.

Do I risk everything for the man I love, or walk away to protect everyone from hurt?

Fans of Twisted Love by Ana Huang and Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score will fall hard for this steamy, heart-wrenching romance.
