This isn't your typical "I'm in love with my brother's best friend romance." No, this is raw. This is real. This is heartbreaking. This is my life. Tessa Benson had the perfect life until it completely shattered beneath her with the fire of a gunshot. Now her brother is gone, her best friend has fled the state, and the only person she's left with is Dawson, her brother's best friend. She'd thrown herself at him countless times, and each time he turned her done. But now that her brother is gone, he wants to get close. He wants to be with her. But can she go down that road with him?
