"You didn't notice me back then. And now?
Now that I've learned to stop waiting for you... suddenly you see me."

Book 1

Serena Hart spent years being invisible to Lucas Thorne-her brother's best friend and the man she once loved in silence. Now, working under him on a high-stakes trip to London, she's no longer the quiet girl he overlooked. She's grown, guarded, and done waiting.

Lucas built an empire on control, but nothing prepares him for the woman Serena's become-or the guilt of realizing everything he failed to see and say. As sparks reignite and old memories surface, their connection grows into something neither can ignore. 

Sometimes the hardest thing to face is the person you never meant to hurt.
And even after love finally finds its way in... some heartbreaks are still waiting to be survived.

‼️PSA- Before reading, please read all tropes! This is an age gap romance and starts as a childhood unrequited crush. If you do not like age gap romance or any of the other tropes don't read it‼️
