Love has never been hard for Nicholas Sheffield. Although he’d grown up watching his parents argue and fight almost right up until his mom was murdered, he never grew up with misconceptions about love. Since the mere age of nine, there was one girl… now, one woman, that has always had his attention. Kyla Taylor. Regardless of her being three years his senior, he fell in love with her and vowed that no other woman would capture his heart, because it belonged to her. Kyla Taylor is an independent woman, who is doing her best to make a loveless relationship work. At least, it’s loveless on her end. All her life, she has tried loving the wrong men, expecting to have a connection similar to the one she has with her best friend, Nicholas Sheffield. While she is aware of his love for her, the closeness of their families and the age difference between them are factors that cause her to keep her distance. However, a trip to visit her family has her trying to rationalize her decision about keeping him in the friendzone. Despite her relationship with someone else, Kyla knows that Nicholas is the man for her. All the years of denying his advances are behind her. Nick is grateful that she might finally be coming to her senses. However, the relationship she’s involved in isn’t quite as easy to discard as she thought it would be. Will Kyla be able to work through the difficulties with her relationship to pursue what her heart desires? Will Nick be patient enough to endure this last struggle or will he be fed up with waiting?
