Melanie
All I want to do is numb the guilt and pain. And the best way I know to do this is to go out and find a hot guy to distract me for a few hours. I dont see a problem with that.
Well, someone tell this to my housemate and best friend Owen, who just wont stop nagging me about getting help to heal. Why wont he let me deal with this my way?
Owen
I get it, Melanie is hurting. But drowning herself in meaningless flings isn’t the way to heal. She thinks I’m just being overprotective, but how can I stand by and watch her self-destruct? She’s my best friend, my housemate, and the one person who’s always been there for me. I won’t let her push me away, not when she needs someone to catch her before she falls too far.
The problem? The more I try to help, the more I realise my feelings for her aren’t as simple as friendship anymore. And if I cross that line, there’s no going back.
Each novella can be enjoyed on its own, but to really get the full picture, you’ll want to dive into the whole series. With each story offering a different perspective, reading all three will reveal all the twists and connections you won’t want to miss!
The book is set in England and written in British English. It includes adult content, so please read the trigger warnings.
