The Secret He Kept

Ayden Calloway has spent exactly one year memorizing every small thing about Emily Voss — her coffee order, the way she taps her pen when she is thinking, the specific laugh she saves for things she actually finds funny. He never said a word. Now a mandatory paired assignment has dropped them into the same locked study lounge for 48 hours, and the best-friend act he has been rehearsing is already cracking at the seams. The problem is not the project. The problem is that getting close enough to be her best friend means she will eventually find out he was never just a friend to begin with.
