When everything she ever wanted turns out not to be enough… Lauren Jefferies is on the verge of having it all. Hard work and determination have culminated in a promotion that promises to put her on track with her upwardly mobile boyfriend Eric. High school sweethearts and together for ten years, they are young enough to have their whole lives ahead of them, but old enough to have established themselves as forces to be reckoned with. The news should be cause for celebration. But taking the job means moving two hours away. Instead of planning their reign as an up and coming power couple, they find their already tenuous relationship further damaged by their conflicting opinions. Eric doesn’t want her to leave. Lauren refuses to back down. In the end, she packs her things and heads up north to her new life, the abstract promise of figuring this all out later hanging between them. Lauren settles into her new routine quite easily, thanks largely in part to her fast friendship with her roommate Blake. Blake’s companionship comes in a package deal with that of her older brother Matthew. One night over dinner, an innocent conversation leads to the discovery that the three of them have more in common than they’d ever imagined. Ashamed of his role in the thread that ties them together, Matthew begins to withdraw. As Lauren devises a game plan to ease his torment, Eric inadvertently pushes them together with his selfish actions. Lauren’s relationship with Eric continues to flounder. The distance is an issue, but Eric’s indifference does nothing to help. Every bright spot in their courtship is countered by darkness and bitterness. More often than not, Matthew is there to pick up the pieces that Eric leaves behind. Prior to meeting Matthew, Lauren thought she knew what she wanted. Now that she’s just about to obtain everything on her list, she’s left to question if she ever really knew what that was.

It was only supposed to be a one night thing… Will Delaney and Gracie Alexander are little more than acquaintances when fate lands them in same place at the same time. One drunken hookup later, they decide that the best course of action for all involved is to pretend it never happened. Will’s recently divorced. Gracie’s perennially single. Upon first glance, they have absolutely nothing in common. They both agree on one thing: they’re not looking for a relationship. The only problem is that they can’t seem to stay away from each other. Can two people who have sworn off love forever find it in the most unexpected setting?

They’ve been each other’s support system for as long as they can remember. But now Blake and Matthew are at an impasse. Torn apart by the very thing that brought them together in the first place, their past comes back to haunt them with a vengeance. Sometimes the ones that know you the best hurt you the most. Sides are chosen. Alliances are formed. Will this case of sibling rivalry cause everything else around them to crumble? This is how it all ends…
