Longtime Crush — Carrie Ann Ryan

When my best friend and I fell for the same guy in middle school, I stepped back. I'd always expected to dance at their wedding. Not sit in the back pew of her funeral.

I left town for my own reasons, but now that I'm back, it's clear Sebastian Montgomery isn't the same man I left. He's hard. Broken. And a single father to an adorable little girl.

When it turns out he's my new neighbor, I can't stay away. But I know I'm playing with fire and the heat between us burns enough to scorch.

I thought I was over my crush. But now it might crush me.
