Twelve Summers Too Late

I spent twelve years loving Mason Hayes.

Twelve summers.

Twelve birthdays.

Twelve years of almosts.

The problem wasn't that he didn't know.

The problem was that he did.

He just never realised what it was costing me.

When Mason arrives at our annual lake house vacation with a girlfriend on his arm, I finally understand something I should have learned years ago:

Sometimes loving someone isn't enough.

So I leave.

And for the first time in his life, Mason has to figure out what it means to lose me.

A grovel-to-HEA romance about unrequited love, heartbreak, and finally choosing yourself.
