Alison- I gave up the second I found out. My parents were dead and I was being dragged across the state to live with people I hadn't seen in years. My so called "godparents", and their daughter, Calen and her little brother I've never met. Sure- Calen and I got along well when we were 12, but we're 17 now. Things have changed. Calen- Alison. I've missed her since the second she moved away. The circumstances are tragic, but I can't help but feel selfishly sheepish that she's here under my roof now. All I want is to cheer her up, to see that pretty little smile again. My beautiful girl. I will spend every second of every day convincing her of how perfect and worthy she is of love.

Blair Miller always followed the rules. She walked the same paths, said the right words, and kept her heart tucked neatly away where no one could reach it. Harper Johnson never followed anyone's rules-least of all her own. She thrived in chaos, in the places Blair would never dare to step. When their worlds collide, it's not a gentle brush-it's a spark that threatens to ignite everything Blair thought she knew about life, love, and herself. In Harper, Blair sees freedom she's never known. In Blair, Harper sees a heart worth protecting. And suddenly, nothing is the same. Two hearts, one beats... and the rhythm of their lives will never again be predictable.

Hailey never planned on moving back to her hometown. Since graduation, she's been holding everything together from a distance - working nonstop and sending money home to cover her father's growing medical bills. But when she suddenly loses her job, everything she's built unravels overnight. Desperate to find work closer to her parents and get back on her feet, she turns to the one person she trusts most - her best friend, Grace. She offers Hailey her spare room without hesitation, but there's only one complication. Emily. Grace's older sister has recently moved in with her, freshly out of a relationship that left its mark; and she's nothing like Hailey remembers. Quiet, protective, and impossible to ignore. Living under the same roof turns their familiarity into something far more dangerous, and it only takes one late night for everything to shift. They agree to forget it ever happened, but the problem is, neither of them wants to. It was supposed to be temporary, but the longer Hailey stays, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth: falling for Emily might cost her the one friendship she can't afford to lose.
