When Veronica and Maverick become roommates, neither expects the connection that unfolds between them—she's spent years keeping everyone at arm's length, while he's contentedly attached to someone else. But as Maverick slowly peels back the layers of her carefully constructed walls, they discover a pull neither can ignore, one that threatens everything they thought they understood about themselves and their hearts. Their dynamic crackles with tension and vulnerability as Veronica's guarded nature clashes beautifully with Maverick's steadfast determination to see her—really see her. This is a story about two people who've been hurt learning what it means to choose each other, even when it's terrifying.
