They were childhood best friends, secret almosts, and each other's constants-

Now, six years later, Sinclair is back in the hometown she swore she'd never return to, and Alex is still there-steadier, older, and just as impossible to forget.
Their families are still intertwined.
Their past is still unfinished.
And the feelings? Still there. Complicated. Unspoken.
When resentment meets longing and silence breaks into truth,
Alex and Sinclair must face the question they've been running from:
Was it ever really over?
A slow-burn, second-chance romance about unspoken love, deep-rooted pain, and finding your way back to the person you never stopped wanting
