When Alex needs someone to look after her while her brother is away, Josh reluctantly steps in, and what follows is an electrifying enemies-to-lovers romance full of tension, hidden wounds, and unexpected vulnerability. The central conflict explores how past trauma shapes the walls people build around their hearts and the transformative power of love in tearing them down.
