Your older brother has been bests friends with the schools best rugby player for years, you and him act like you both hate each other. He thinks your just his best friends little sister, that your annoying, and very fun to piss off. You think he’s a rugby jerk who doesn’t have manners. The truth? He’s never cared or wanted a girl more than you.
One dangerous night changes everything. Now your father insists on having a bodyguard by your side 24/7. Asher Knight is cold, bossy, and constantly getting on your nerves. Too bad he’s also the only person who makes you feel safe.
Y/N Blackwood finally escaped the house that spent years breaking her. Now she’s living with the Bennetts—a family that’s kind, patient, and everything she’s not used to. But trust doesn’t come easily when you’ve spent your whole life waiting for people to hurt you. Especially when there’s Asher Bennett. The more Y/N tries to keep her distance, the harder it becomes to ignore the people determined to prove she’s worth caring about. But the past doesn’t stay buried forever. And some wounds follow you wherever you go. Because some houses are easy to leave. Some aren’t. And some follow you home.
