Eloise thought she finally had her life under control - a job she loved, friends who were more like family, and the thrill of something new with Ethan, the quiet, steady presence she never saw coming. What started with shy smiles and stolen coffees soon deepened into late-night talks, soft touches, and a love that felt like home.
But nothing in Eloise's world is simple. Her history with Hayden still lingers like a shadow, her friendships are shifting under the weight of secrets, and not everyone is happy about the spark between her and Ethan. Especially not Grace,whose smiles are growing thinner, her distance sharper by the day.
As Eloise and Ethan fall harder for each other, navigating love in stolen moments and whispered promises, the circle of trust around them begins to fray. Loyalties blur, jealousy simmers, and friendships twist into something dangerous.
Because when lines blur between love and betrayal, friendship and rivalry, nothing will stay the same.
Between Us is a slow-burn contemporary romance about love found in the unlikeliest places, the power of friendship, and the heartbreak of realizing that not everyone you trust wants the best for you.
