Moving back to my hometown was supposed to be a fresh start. A new job, new life—just what I needed. What I didn’t expect was to meet him.
Connor wasn’t part of the plan. But now, he’s everywhere—my new coworker, the man I can’t stop thinking about, and the one with walls so high I’m not sure I’ll ever break through. He’s been burned before, and he’s convinced he doesn’t need anyone. Especially not someone like me.
But the more time we spend together, the harder it is to stay in the friend zone. My heart’s already in too deep, and I’m determined to show him that not all men run when things get tough.
I just need him to give me a chance—because I’m not going anywhere. And I’m ready to prove that falling for the right person isn’t so scary when I’m here to catch him.
Because with Connor, the hardest fall might just be the one we take together.
