Some people become so intertwined with your life that losing them feels like losing a part of yourself. For Sofía Carter, Joe Keery was never just her best friend's older brother. He was summers spent at the Keery house when her own home felt too quiet. Late-night drives, shared secrets, almost-kisses, and years of feelings buried beneath friendship and bad timing. The boy she loved without ever really admitting it. The one person who always felt a little too much like home. For years, Sofía convinced herself whatever existed between them had faded into history. Until Joe comes home. Suddenly, old feelings begin surfacing with terrifying ease, pulling them back into the kind of intimacy that once ruined them both. What begins as lingering looks and stolen touches quickly spirals into a secret neither of them can seem to stop choosing. But falling for Joe again means risking far more than heartbreak. Because their lives have always been deeply entangled, threaded through shared friends, family dinners, inside jokes, and years of history too complicated to untangle cleanly. And this time, losing each other might cost them everything that ever felt like home.

Sometimes, the person who knows you best... is the one you were never supposed to fall for.

Julie García built her career on control. As one of the most sought-after tour managers in the industry, she's known for running flawless shows, fixing problems before they happen, and never, ever, losing her composure. Her reputation isn't just important, it's everything. But control is a fragile thing, especially when it comes to Joe Keery. Because no matter how perfectly she runs his tour, there's one thing she can't seem to manage; the way he looks at her like she's something worth breaking the rules for. And in an industry that destroys women for far less, one mistake is all it takes to lose everything.

A year and a half after their lives took different turns, Julia and Joe are living in separate worlds: hers grounded in the routine of her New York bookstore, his swept up in filming projects across the globe. But when an unexpected reunion stirs up long-buried feelings, their paths slowly start to intertwine once more. **Sequel to The End of Beginning**

She grew up across the street from him. Joe was first crushes, porch lights, family parties, and everything Victoria never quite got over. Even when he left for college. Even when New York claimed him. Even when the world did too. Years later, Victoria is building a life through photography, art, and carefully controlled distance when she's invited on tour with Joe and his friends, but proximity has a way of exposing what time never erased. As old feelings collide with new realities, Victoria is forced to confront the hardest truth of all: loving someone for years doesn't mean they were ever yours.
