Aurora Hayes doesn't run to Los Angeles to be discovered-she runs to stop disappearing.
Fresh from a small Minnesota town that never felt like home, Aurora lands in L.A. with a thrifted tripod, a motel key, and a promise to herself: document the climb, not the fall. A corner café becomes her lifeline, its manager Marisol and barista Lila folding her into a softer kind of family. And on a crowded sidewalk she meets Colby Brock-then, slowly, Sam Golbach, Jake Webber, and Corey Scherer-the TrapHouse Boys whose kindness feels impossible and, somehow, exactly right. Between dawn shifts and DIY reels, thrift hauls and rooftop sunsets, Aurora learns how to belong...and how to be seen.
But the past doesn't always stay put. Anonymous messages turn into threats, and a cruel ultimatum from her ex-and the parents who once broke her-drags her back toward the cold she thought she'd outrun. With Dottie's steadfast help and the boys' fierce loyalty, Aurora claws her way to safety and returns to L.A. determined to tell her own story on her own terms.
Love Among the TrapHouse Boys is a slow-burn, found-family romance threaded with suspense-a journey from survival to choice. It's about the intimacy of ordinary days: steaming milk and shared playlists, puzzles on ugly couches, community that shows up with cinnamon rolls and spare keys. And it's about a girl who thought she had to be small to be safe, learning that love-real love-doesn't demand silence. By New Year's, under string lights and laughter, Aurora finally claims both a home and a heartbeat: the future she built, and the boy beside her who kept the porch light on.
