And Then Came You

Falling for your best friend was never part of the plan—especially when he’s the world’s most wanted man.

Lexi McMillan swore she was done with heartbreakers. Tall, tattooed, and devastatingly charming, Samuel Bernard is exactly the kind of man she’s avoided her whole life. The kind everyone wants, but no one truly knows.

They’re safe in the friend zone. Until late-night phone calls start feeling too intimate. Until stolen glances linger too long. Until one accidental touch shatters all the rules.

Lexi can’t risk being just another woman who gets left behind. Sam’s terrified of wanting someone who matters enough to lose. And when insecurities, unspoken fears, and old wounds collide, they’ll have to decide whether friendship is enough—or whether love is worth the risk.

A heart-felt, slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance filled with sharp banter, deep emotional intimacy, and the kind of connection that only comes from being truly seen. Perfect for readers who love emotionally grounded romances in the spirit of When Harry Met Sally.
