The way you call me yours
They've been best friends since birth. Now they're basically living together, falling in love, and calling each other names like it's foreplay. Leah Rhodes has always had a plan: keep her head down, survive her senior year, and try not to think about the boy she's been in love with since before she even knew what that meant. Nash Gentry has never had a plan-except making sure Leah always has a place to land. Even if that means watching her fall for someone else. Even if that means pretending he's not completely, obsessively in love with her. But when jealousy, heartbreak, and one impulsive kiss shatter the boundary between best friends and something more, they'll have to decide if love is worth the risk of losing everything they've ever known. Because they've always belonged to each other. Even if neither of them knew it yet.Complete
