This isn't just a book. It's a collection of the feelings I swallowed, the words I never got to say, and the moments that made me realize I was holding on to something that was never mine. It's about waiting for a message that never comes, overanalyzing the smallest interactions, and convincing myself that maybe, just maybe, he'd finally see me the way I saw him. I wrote this for the version of me that stayed too long, that mistook inconsistency for mystery, and silence for something other than indifference. If you've ever loved someone who made you feel like an option, if you've ever begged the universe for a sign that never showed up, then, this book is for you. It's for anyone who has ever romanticized a "maybe," ignored the red flags in favor of potential, or held onto a love that only existed in their head. This isn't a guide on how to move on, it's a confession of what it feels like to be stuck, down bad, and still waiting for something that was never real to begin with.

"The things you do for friends." He laughed softly... "Yeah. For friends," I whispered. "Is that what we are then?".... "Is that what you want?" he asked after several moments of just staring at each other. I gripped the door frame behind me as I felt my knees weaken. I was sure by his smirk that the movement didn't go unnoticed. I swallowed nervously. I didn't know what to say. Just a week ago I told him we were nothing. A few days before that I was ready to tell him off and possibly even smack him if I ever got the chance to see him again. Sure, he was one of my oldest friends and my first (and only) love, but he was also my first heartbreak. Could I go back to being friends with the same guy who insinuated to the world that I was a cheater? And why did "just friends" feel like not enough in this moment? *** ** * When McKenzie went out with her best friends one night, she never dreamed she would run into her ex, famous country singer Beau Anderson, and she never dreamed that she would allow him to come back into her life. Unable to cope with having a relationship in the public eye again, McKenzie is determined to resist all of Beau's charms...no matter how hard that may be.. Beau is determined to tear down the walls she's built since their ugly and very public split. But what will he find in the rubble? Will they be just friends ...something more...or nothing at all....? Can they reconcile their past in time to save their future? *** ** * WARNING: mature content! There is inappropriate language and some mature scenes.
