When she left to chase her own dreams, she took mine with her.
My childhood best friend Charlotte Lane has wanted to escape this small town for as long as I can remember. So the first chance she got, she left Silverton—and me—behind.
Now she’s home and just as magnetic as ever. She needs a place to live, and as luck would have it, I’ve got one right next door.
Charlotte can see right away that I’m not the same skinny, shy boy she remembers. I’m a healthy, focused man. Suddenly she’s looking at me in the way I’ve always wanted her to, and as much as I like it, I’m also trying to ignore the ticking clock.
Because I know what’s coming. I’ll fall right back in love with her just when she’s ready to leave again.
