Contrary to this myth, my friendship with Coriander Phillips does not rest on unrequited love or un-actualized lust. We've been inseparable since the day I pulled one of her pigtails and she punched me in the gut. She's hilarious, fun to hang out with. Together, we're like peanut butter and jelly, spaghetti and meatballs, wings and beer. A match made in heaven. She's the bomb. Did I mention she's smokin' hot? I've checked her out...maybe once or twice. Hey, I'm a guy. Seriously, no awkwardness, no secret yearning for our relationship to escalate beyond the purely platonic. I'm the boy friend-the loyal shoulder she cries on, the dispenser of coffee, sympathy, hugs, advice, and affection with no expectations. Until the invisible line between friends and lovers became blurry. Now I want more. I want her. All I have to do is convince her we can be more than friends. Right? If only it were that easy.

I spent time running from those feelings and the guilt that tried to suffocate me. But something much worse is forcing me to pick up and relocate again. This time back home. To the city I've always loved and missed, and surprisingly back to the man I tried to forget. But it could never be. The stark, anger-filled expression in Joshua's emerald eyes when he first lays eyes on me, warns of his unforgiveness. At least, that's what I thought it was, until he invites me to stay in his home. Once there, the friendship that was always between us, changes into something more...something different. JoshuaI hadn't realized how much I'd missed her until I saw her for the first time in seven years. She was different. Hell, we both were but the confident, outgoing woman I remembered wasn't the same Kayla Reyes that come back from the West Coast.

Not only is there trouble brewing at my multi-million dollar real-estate company, but Kay's got her own secrets. Secrets that sent her scurrying back to the city she left behind. I resolve to get to the bottom of both these issues and get rid of them, root and stem. What I hadn't banked on was breaking the vow I'd made years earlier; to never lose my heart to a woman again. And this time, it's deeper than ever before. This time it's starting to feel as if it were meant to be.
