Inès Dubois has it all planned out, her studies, her career, and a life free from distractions. But one distraction has been impossible to Kingsley Ashford, her friend and unrequited crush. For years, Kingsley has kept her in the friend zone, leaving Inès frustrated. When the handsome Nathan Salvatore asks her out, Inès believes it is time to move on from Kingsley. But is she ready to let him go?

Kingsley Ashford’s life has always been about control, duty, and hiding his true feelings for Inès. But when Inès agrees to go on a date with another man, it stirs up possessive feelings he has been trying to ignore. Scared he will lose her, Kingsley makes a confession to Inè he wants her. They are thrust into uncharted territory, risking their friendship as they navigate their newly revealed feelings.

Their relationship is soon tested when secrets come to light, and Inès struggles with unwanted attention from Nathan. Can their love survive, or will they lose each other forever?
