We were almost forever . . .



Gretchen: It's been three years since the kiss. The one I can't seem to forget. Judging by the girl on his arm, Connor Vining has no such problem. I guess I misunderstood the look in his eyes that night. I guess his best friend's kid sister was never really in the running for Love of His Life.



But I'm not a kid anymore. I've graduated college and I'm about to fly interstate, in hopes of meeting my birth mother. I was never going to face her alone, but when a twist of fate puts Connor by my side, I'm blindsided. And our tangled past is threatening to come undone . . .



Connor: I'm not sure whose heart is more broken: Gretchen's or mine. All I know is it took everything in me to walk away from that kiss. I kept a promise, and I lost a friend.



And I think I made a mistake.



The problem is, now is not the right time to break down the walls Gretchen built to keep me out. But now is the only time we've got.



Forever Then is a childhood friends-to-lovers, brother's best friend, forced proximity, second chance adult romance.
