He's a single dad in over his head. She's his best friend who moves in to help...

Kemp

I went from carefree to single dad overnight, and I'm in way over my head.

My life was already packed-firefighter shifts, running a brewery-but nothing prepared me for this. Or for how much I need Anna.

She steps in without hesitation, like she always does. But keeping things to just friends is even harder than being a dad.

We're living in close quarters, sharing responsibilities, and building something that looks a lot like a family.

Now I'm falling for my best friend-and I don't know how to stop.

Anna

Loving Kemp has always been my secret. Safe. One-sided. Controlled.

Until now.

Helping him means stepping into his world-into forced proximity, quiet moments, and a life that feels dangerously like mine.

The more time we spend together, the harder it is to pretend I don't want more.

Because this isn't just a crush anymore. It's everything.

And if he doesn't feel the same... I could lose the one person I can't live without.
