Nessa has spent years being invisible to her brother's best friend - or so she thought. River Phoenix notices everything. He just never let himself act on it.
When a terrifying night out forces Nessa to move into Finn's flat, the careful distance they've kept dissolves one borrowed sweater, one kitchen morning, one accidental kiss at a time.
Phoenix is arrogant, closed-off, and carrying scars he's never shown anyone. Nessa is fierce, independent, and absolutely not supposed to fall for him.
Finn would never forgive them. So they won't tell him. Easy.
Except nothing about Phoenix has ever been easy.
