Lyndsay Monroe has never been quiet.
She fills rooms without trying; laughs too loud, speaks too fast, starts fights she doesn't always finish. She's the kind of person who turns chaos into a personality and calls it honesty.
She grew up on the same street as her childhood best friend, Sam, sharing summers, scraped knees, and a version of life that felt familiar. But the love she never learned how to name lived closer than that, on the other side of a thin wooden fence, woven quietly into every memory she pretended not to notice.
Now in her twenties, living in Los Angeles, Lyndsay's life looks loud and fearless from the outside. But between late nights, familiar laughter, and moments that linger too long, the past begins to surface in ways she can't outpace forever.
Because maybe it wasn't new.
Maybe it wasn't accidental.
Maybe-it was always him.
