Ian

You know the worst thing about falling in love? Getting friend-zoned.

I was patient. I waited five years for her to end her last relationship. For her to realize he wasn't good enough for her. For her to be ready to move on.

I was done waiting. I had to tell her the truth. That I wasn't the same guy I used to be, bringing home every woman in our small town. That I was the guy she was sharing secrets with on the online dating app. That I was single, and ready for her to be mine.

I had to tell her I loved her.

But what if she didn't feel the same?

"He'll back off if I kiss you."

Talk about blowing up my world. I was dumped me because my ex thought I was in love with my best friend's brother. Now, Ian wants to kiss me. In front of my ex.

I'm so damn tempted. Every woman wants Ian. I'm no different.

But kissing him crossed a line. A line I wasn't sure I could come back from. Could I stop at one kiss?

Not likely.

But I also couldn't keep him at a distance like I did with everyone else. He would learn everything.

And not just how much I wished he could be mine, but also why he never could be.
