Forever Never

When Remi returns to her tiny hometown on Mackinac Island with a dangerous secret she can't share, the last thing she needs is Brick—her brother's best friend, her former teenage heartbreak, and the one man who's never stopped watching over her—refusing to let her face whatever's threatening her alone. Their history is complicated and fraught with all the tension of a slow-burn attraction neither of them can quite extinguish, but Brick's protective nature and Remi's stubborn independence clash in the best way as he keeps showing up at her door, determined to help despite the walls between them. What starts as reluctant cohabitation becomes something neither of them can deny, even as the danger closing in around them grows darker and more real. This is a gorgeously emotional second-chance romance full of sparkling banter, protective hero energy, and the kind of all-consuming connection that feels both inevitable and impossible.
