Hannah Stewart has always been the quiet keeper of her own heart, loving from long distance. At twenty-four, she leaves behind everything familiar to start over in Germany-accepting a teaching job, reconnecting with her roots, and finally closing the chapter on the feelings she's carried for years for her childhood best friend, Bastian.
But nothing goes as planned.
When a sudden housing shortage leaves Hannah with nowhere to stay, she finds herself moving into Bastian's home-and her unrequited feelings are getting more difficult to hide.
Now a rising professional soccer star at just twenty-five, Bastian is living fast, surrounded by attention, success, and casual relationships that make it painfully clear he hasn't been waiting for her the way she once hoped.
Yet beneath the fame and distractions, the boy Hannah grew up with is still there-the one who knows her better than anyone else, who makes her laugh, who feels like home.
Though distance is no longer a factor, will they find their way into each other's hearts and share the words that have never been said?
