Making Room for Love
A Brother's Best Friend Romance About Trust, Healing, and Home
Emily Moore has spent the last six months rebuilding the quiet life she almost lost.
After walking away from an emotionally abusive relationship-and still carrying the hurt of being cheated on before that-Emily has sworn off dating completely. She has her work as a residential interior designer at Willow House Interiors, her small Florida town of Willowbend, and a carefully controlled routine that helps her feel safe again.
Then Zach Andrews walks back into her life.
Zach is her older brother Hunter's best friend, the steady boy from her childhood who somehow grew into a patient, dry-humored project manager with kind hazel eyes and a house that desperately needs help. When he hires Emily to help turn his empty, beige house into a home, their old family-friend connection slowly becomes something neither of them expected.
Paint samples turn into late-night texts.
Rug shopping turns into hand-holding.
Coffee drop-offs, office lunches, poolside afternoons, and quiet movie nights turn into something warm, careful, and impossible to ignore.
Zach never pushes Emily for more than she is ready to give. He asks. He waits. He remembers the little things. And for the first time in a long time, Emily begins to wonder if love doesn't have to feel like losing herself.
Maybe it can feel like safety.
Maybe it can feel like choosing.
Maybe it can feel like coming home.
