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.
