Tessa Monroe chose the good guy. Roman Hayes learned too late that losing her hurt more than any bet ever could. And Theo Brooks has no intention of giving her back. Third year was supposed to be easier. Tessa and Theo survived the summer. They are still together, still serious, and for the first time in a long time, Tessa knows exactly where she stands. Then Roman comes back. Quieter. Different. And somehow more dangerous than when he was reckless enough to ruin her. Because this time, he isn't trying to win her. He's trying to become someone she could choose. And the worst part? Tessa is starting to notice. "You don't get to wait for me forever, Roman." "I know." "Then why are you still here?" "Because leaving you was never the part I learned how to do."
