She was his little sister's best friend. The girl next door. Off-limits... until she wasn't. He was her first crush. Her first heartbreak. And now-her biggest distraction. The Dawson and Miller families weren't just neighbors-they were practically one family. Backyard barbecues, family holidays, and sleepovers made them inseparable.They had shared birthdays, dinners, tragedies, laughter-even parenting duties ,always together. Aria Miller had known Cole Dawson since the day she was born-he was her best friend's older brother, her first love, and the boy who unknowingly broke her heart. He was charming, protective, and her safe place. Until he left for college and turned into someone else-cocky, popular, and a full-blown heartbreaker who never looked back. Now, years later, Aria is walking into her first day of college-and it's his campus. Their parent's perfect plan to keep her and Nora Dawson close to Cole worked... a little too well. Only this time, Aria's not the shy little neighbor girl he used to tease. She's confident. Stunning. And completely unforgettable. Cole can't believe the transformation. The girl he's known since birth now turns every head in the hallway-including his. And the worst part? She doesn't even look at him. He always saw her as Nora's best friend. A little sister. But now? He can't stop looking. Can't stop wanting. As childhood bonds twist into something deeper, Aria must decide: is chasing her old crush worth the heartache? And Cole-will he risk everything by falling for the one girl he was never supposed to touch? Because sometimes, the person you thought you knew your whole life... Turns out to be the one you can't stop thinking about.
