He’s a driven military man zeroed in on a new goal. She’s a struggling law student running from her family’s mistakes. Nothing about them fits until one unforgettable kiss threatens their roommate-only status and their future plans along with it.

I’ve left my Navy career behind to reach for the political dreams of my childhood. All I need to do is keep the squeaky-clean reputation I’ve prided myself on for a few more months. It should be a piece of cake until a long-legged, dynamo enters my life. Until a single kiss with Georgie Astrella has me questioning everything I ever wanted.

Charming and suave may be Mac Whittaker’s middle name, but I can’t afford the distraction. Not when I’ve waited years to chase the law degree I put aside for my family. The stolen vacation kiss we shared must remain nothing but a faded memory.

Arriving in D.C., I’m stunned to find out my unseen, second roommate is Mac, and the chemistry burning between us hasn’t disappeared. Instead, it threatens to become a full-blown flame.

But with my family’s past threatening his shiny future, can either of us afford the sacrifice love would demand?

“My heart enlarged at a thought I’d never had for a woman... I wanted to keep her.”

Inspired by Lewis Capaldi’s “Bruises,” comes a heart-warming, friends-to-lovers romance about dreams and family with vibrant characters on an emotional journey you won’t want to miss.
