She never thought someone like Elijah Brooks could ever see her as more than a friend. They met at youth group years ago and became inseparable — volunteering together every Sunday, helping with kids every Wednesday, and slowly becoming the people each other relied on most. While she spent years believing plus size girls like her were never the ones chosen first, Elijah was quietly realizing he couldn’t imagine a future without her in it. What starts as friendship turns into something deeper when Elijah finally decides he’s done hiding how he feels. Through beach nights, Bible studies, church hallways, and soft moments that feel straight out of a fairytale, both of them begin learning that real love isn’t about perfection — it’s about being fully seen and fully chosen. A soft Christian friends-to-lovers romance about faith, insecurity, and the kind of love that makes someone feel beautiful for the first time.
