I tripped—literally—into the arms of the most handsome man I’d ever seen. Cliché? Maybe. But something sparked the moment our eyes met. Then I found out he’s my new neighbor. And quickly becoming my dad’s best friend. Oh—and he’s seventeen years older than me. He’s the only man I’ve ever wanted… and the one I can’t have. Then tragedy strikes, and my world implodes. And Everett is the one putting me back together. Now grief is the only thing between us...and that line keeps getting thinner. Just when I start to believe in something more, everything crashes down again. I try to heal. Move on. But I don’t see the danger coming until it’s too late. And this time, there’s no one to save me. Not even myself. But fate isn’t finished with me yet. Because the man who finds me in the wreckage is the one I wasn’t supposed to need. And the only one I can’t let go of.
