The Follow Through (CTU Titans, #2)

JordanI met the love of my life when we were fourteen.One conversation was all it took to lock me in the friend zone—for eight long years.I watched her fall in love with other people.Watched her build a future that didn’t include me.And I waited.Now she’s back, broken and running, and I’m done pretending I only want her friendship. She’s always been mine—whether she knew it or not—and this time, I’m not letting her walk away.I didn’t wait eight years just to lose her now.MackenzieThe life I spent eight years building collapsed overnight—leaving me heartbroken, unemployed, and without a place to land.So I ran.A new city. A fresh start. Distance from everything that hurts.What I didn’t expect was him.My first love. My best friend. The boy who always knew me better than anyone else. He becomes my refuge, my steady ground while I piece myself back together—but he isn’t offering friendship anymore.He wants forever.The problem? His forever might already include someone else—and I don’t know if my heart can survive losing him twice.
