Tate Monroe has always been my secret-the one guy who knows exactly how to push my buttons and make my heart race all at once. With his easy charm, sharp wit, and a smile that feels like trouble, he's everything I've sworn to avoid. But when my long-term relationship crumbles, leaving me to pick up the pieces of my life, I end up with no choice but to move in with my brother-and Tate. Living under the same roof as him is a constant battle. The rugby captain who's always seen through my walls is now closer than ever, his presence impossible to ignore. With every accidental touch, every stolen glance, and every teasing exchange, the chemistry between us grows stronger-and harder to deny. The problem? Tate isn't just my brother's best friend. He's the one person I promised myself I couldn't have. The one person who could unravel everything I've worked so hard to protect. As the lines between what's right and what I want blur, I'm left wondering: How long can I keep my heart-and my secrets-intact before everything comes undone?
