Meet Me at the River by Kenzie Ford
HUDSON
I’ve been in love with my best friend since I was thirteen—since the day I saved him from drowning in the Jones River. Five years later, he’s dating my twin sister, and my heart hasn’t gotten the memo. I’ll take his friendship over losing him, which is why he’ll never know how deep my feelings go. And if that secret isn’t enough, my talent for pretending everything is fine helps me hide my panic attacks and depression from the world. I overachieve, smile, perform—anything not to be a burden.
But just as my wildest dreams start to come true, an obsessive secret admirer threatens everything I’ve longed for. And when the darkness closes in, even Cullen’s light isn’t enough to pull me back from the ledge.
CULLEN
Things aren’t going well with my girlfriend, my best friend’s sister, and I’m starting to think I may be with the wrong twin. One night at a party, jealousy hits me harder than I want to admit, and suddenly I can’t ignore the feelings for Hudson I’ve been shoving down for years. As he starts to open up to me about his struggles, I can’t help but want to wrap him up and protect the man who’s becoming my everything.
But the closer we get, the more someone seems determined to tear us apart. I’m trying to keep him steady, keep him safe, keep us—but the pressure is building, and I’m terrified this will crash before we ever have a real chance.
This book is intended for audiences 18+. It contains explicit scenes between two consenting adults (18 years old).
