Both Ends (Becoming Sequel)

Distance was never supposed to matter.

For months, Roxanna and Rafe have fought against the miles that separate them-her in San Francisco, chasing the final year of her engineering degree, and him in the Outer Banks, balancing the weight of his family's empire while proving he's more than just Ward Cameron's son.

They promised to make it work.

They swore nothing would come between them.

But life has a funny way of testing even the strongest of loves.

Between missed calls, conflicting schedules, and the undeniable ache of being apart, the cracks begin to form. Rafe finds himself consumed by the pressures of running the Outer Banks branch, his need to prove himself becoming an obsession. Meanwhile, Roxanna is pulled into late-night projects, new opportunities, and unexpected friendships that make the distance feel even greater.

And then, there's the doubt.

The whispered voices in their heads that wonder-can love survive when you're living separate lives?

When old insecurities resurface and new temptations arise, they're forced to ask themselves the hardest question yet:

Is love enough when the person you need the most is 3,000 miles away?

Or will the weight of their worlds finally pull them apart?
