She was running from her guilt. He was hiding away his pain. Neither of them had expected to run into each other.
Madison Foster had only wanted one thing. To disappear and flee from her unspoken grief. But when she moves into her cousin's beach house, she hadn't expected him-Miles Anderson, an NHL player forced out of his former life to deal with his tragic injury.
He's her cousin's best friend. Her unwanted roommate. And the one person she can't seem to shut out.
With all the longing glances, heated arguments and the weight of their difficult pasts hanging in the air, Madison realizes that the past isn't the only thing she's running from and that Miles might be the one thing she's afraid to want.
Will she be able to resist the tension, or will it be the one thing that pulls her under?

When secrets surface and an arranged engagement threatens everything, they'll have to decide what's worth fighting for-the future they were raised to chase, or the love they were never supposed to find. 💔 Love didn't break them.
