Her best friend. The one she can count on for anything. The one she… might have a little crush on. She’s the last girl he should be checking for. His best friend. The one who desperately needs a place to stay after being displaced by a fire at her own apartment building. The one who’s always had a piece of his heart even if she never knew it. While Monte and Nicole have always both been incredibly respectful of the boundaries within their friendship, there’s something about Building 402 that has a way of shaking the table… Note: While this book tells a complete story, it is a novella meaning it is shorter in length by design. If you prefer your stories longer, I’d highly recommend checking out another Alexandra Warren project. :)
