"I should have known... I should have never trusted you."
"Please, I'm sorry Ethan. It was a mistake."
Nancy and Max had been best friends since childhood-inseparable, unshakable, and always standing firm in each other's corner. They were two halves of a whole, their bond the one constant in a world of uncertainty.
But their perfect balance was shattered the day Ethan entered their lives.
He wasn't supposed to come between them. He wasn't supposed to disrupt the unbreakable rhythm of their friendship. So how did it come to this?
Nancy should have seen the signs. She should have known that liking him would only lead to heartache. But how could she have guessed? How could she have prepared herself for the truth?
Because Ethan... Ethan didn't feel the same. His heart belonged to someone else-her best friend.
And now, the unshakable bond between Nancy and Max trembles on the edge of breaking, tested by emotions they never saw coming.
How do you move forward when the line between friendship and love becomes blurred?
