Synopsis

He’s terrified of losing his best friend. She’s tired of waiting.

As a branch manager, I know a bad gamble when I see one. And falling for the woman who’s my roommate, coworker, and little sister’s best friend? That’s the highest risk of all.

Olivia Donovan is my safe place—the voice on the other end of every crisis call and the first person I want to tell when things go right or fall apart. Five hours with her feels like five minutes. But some connections are too valuable to risk.

Determined to protect our friendship, I start dating someone else. Olivia gets the message. No more late-night debriefs or carpooling. The easy friendship we’ve always shared is replaced by careful boundaries at home and at work.

I tell myself it’s for the best. Until another man starts claiming the space I took for gtanted—holding doors for her, sitting next to her in meetings, and making her laugh during presentations.

Suddenly, losing Olivia’s friendship isn’t my biggest fear. Losing her altogether is. The trouble is, Olivia spent years waiting for me to see what was right in front of me. Now, she believes she’s my second choice.

Can I convince her she’s always been my first priority—and that I’m hers forever?

Yours Forever is book 3 in the Office Hearthrobs Series. Each book can be read as a complete standalone.
Meet the most dashing executives of Stone Financial Corporate office in San Francisco in the inspirational ‘Office Heartthrobs’ series. These men are brilliant, and successful, but beneath their polished exteriors lie deep emotional scars. Set against the high stakes of the financial industry, each man finds himself unexpectedly disarmed by the most powerful force: love.
