IPPY Award Winner – Bronze Medal in Romance, 2025
They were always right for each other—but the timing was always wrong. A decade-long, angsty friends-to-lovers romance you can binge on Kindle Unlimited.
SOMETIMES LOVE IS WRITTEN IN THE STARS. SOMETIMES THE UNIVERSE HAS OTHER PLANS.
Sunny and Dex have been best friends since childhood. But beneath their picture-perfect exteriors lie secrets that could tear them apart—or bring them closer than ever.
A lifelong people-pleaser, Sunny can’t tell her demanding mother that she dreams of writing romance novels instead of going to law school. Only Dex knows all her secrets—except that she’s been madly in love with him for years. But her mother doesn’t approve of Dex, and loving him might cost Sunny the only family she’s ever known. Plus, what if he doesn’t feel the same?
Oliver “Dex” Dexter has it all: looks, talent, and charm. A gifted actor, he’s destined for stardom. Yet behind his dazzling façade, anxiety threatens to unravel everything. Only with Sunny can he truly be himself—but will she still want him if she discovers the truth?
As their feelings intensify and boundaries blur, Sunny and Dex find themselves caught between the expectations of others and their deepest desires. Will their love be strong enough to withstand the pressure? Or will the masks they wear become the very things that drive them apart?
