A He I Once Loved

He Series #2

Jen, an overthinker who once swore he'd moved on from his high school rival-turned-crush, Nova. After years of silent resentment and one humiliating graduation day confession that ended in heartbreak. Jen thought he had finally outgrown the boy who once drove him crazy. But when Nova returns, charming as ever and opening a cozy café right across the street, Jen's carefully built walls start to crumble. Old wounds resurface, feelings reignite, and Jen is forced to confront the one question he's avoided for years:

What if the boy he once loved... was really the one he never stopped loving?
