~RITA Nominated~ZACH Nessa is one of my closest friends, so there's no way I'll ruin our friendship for a hookup. Even if I want to be with her. Badly. She's beautiful, and sweet, and her bright light draws me from the darkness that trails my every move. But it's the darkness of my past that has me keeping Nessa at arm's length. I'll protect her if it's the last thing I do--even if it means protecting her from myself, becauseI can't give her the kind of relationship she deserves. NESSA Zach doesn't discriminate when it comes to the women he dates. Except with me. Me he keeps in the friend zone. I want him. I've always wanted him, and I think he wants me too. But I can't remain in Lake Tahoe and pine for Zach forever. My career is stuck, my personal life as well, with Zach always pushing me away the moment sparks fly between us. I can either leave this town and make a fresh start somewhere else, or finally show Zach how right we are for each other.**All books in the Blue Series are stand-alone stories that can be read in any order.**
