We Could Be Better by Lem

Kyra and Cash have been circling each other their entire lives—best friends caught in a push-and-pull of unspoken feelings, missed timing, and complicated emotions. Kyra always loved him from afar, but Cash never saw her as more than a friend… until one drunken night blurred the lines forever.
Now, five years later, Kyra returns home after disappearing without a trace. Older, guarded, and nursing old wounds, she’s not the same girl who used to dream of a life with Cash. And Cash? The once-committed player is starting to realize that Kyra may have always been the one he let slip through his fingers.
But the past doesn’t stay buried for long.
As their connection rekindles, so do the secrets Kyra’s been hiding—and the pain she thought she left behind. When the truth comes out, it threatens to destroy any chance they have at finally getting it right.

Will Cash be ready to commit before it’s too late? Or will Kyra’s past ruin everything… for good?
