Step into New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy’s mesmerizing and emotionally charged romance featuring Rowan Lancaster, the son of Crew and Wren from A Million Kisses in Your Lifetime. With an exclusive bonus scene.

This was supposed to be the best year of Rowan Lancaster’s life. Instead, thanks to a massive linebacker, his ankle is broken and his last football season at Lancaster Prep is done. Just like that. Now his days are dull and gray. Boring.

Except for the days that include Arabella Hartley Thomas.

She’s the girl everyone wants to be friends with. Beautiful but approachable. Stylish. Quirky. Yet she gets under Rowan’s skin like no other, and he doesn’t understand why. Sure, they flirt and banter and give each other grief. But now she invades his dreams and makes his heart pound so hard he’s sure she can see it.

Until suddenly, not only does Arabella see every part that he wishes he could hide, he realizes if he let himself, he could fall―hard.

Which is the same day he learns she might be leaving…for good.

Arabella is such a unique name I love it, and Rowan both go to the same private school. They both have their own secrets. Arabella is a firecracker with a great sense of humor. I loved how she would get under Rowan skin. Rowan is a rough guy on the outside when you get to know him you can see maybe he’s not that bad? Rowan is currently down on his luck not sure what to do or how to handle it all. The only thing that seems to brighten his day is Arabella. Rowan has a protectiveness to him over Arabella even as friends. They have fantastic banter, wonderful chemistry. Getting to see them get to know one another and break down their walls and getting to know one another was just the book that I was looking for.
