ABOUT THE BOOK A new standalone novel by six-time USA Today bestselling author Lacey Silks We share the same birthday and breathe the same air. My best friend Nick, lives next door and our windows are only a foot apart. I know him better than he knows himself, but I can't tell him that because well, he's a boy... that is, until he grows up and becomes a man. A strong, handsome and persuasive man I would die for. He is the first person I see each morning, and the last person I see when I go to sleep at night. My life is his and his is mine and everything would have been perfect if he didn't choose to leave.

But seeing Jill with someone else triggers feelings in Vincent he never knew he had. Now he'll have to stop playing good cop/bad cop-and find a way to convince her to be his partner for life. . .
