Letting Go

“She carried weights with her from Texas, and slowly she started leaving them on the interstate. The last weight and her heaviest burden seemed to fall away. She would never be the Fin who left California ever again. But she started the process of taping her broken pieces back together. Eventually, she won’t need the tape, but for now, she trusted me enough to let me witness her transformation.”

Finley is miles away from her family with only her abusive husband, Kyle, by her side in Texas. When she calls her brother, Aiden, on his birthday, his oldest best friend, Tripp, answers the phone. He notices familiar bruises and flies to her aid immediately. After a bit of hand-wringing, she agrees to drive home to Los Angeles with him while she contemplates what she wants in life.

Tripp just got his two-year chip and keeps a white-knuckle grip on his sobriety. He is forced to confront the demons of his past while wrestling with the promise of a brighter future.

As the pair visit outlandish tourist traps and drive from motel to motel, things heat up quickly, igniting a flame neither can deny. Both of them are forced to let go of what they imagined getting the futures they’d always dreamed about. Tensions explode to an all-time high when they agree to see Aiden together.

Letting Go is the perfect book for lovers of forced proximity and the one-bed trope, and for readers who enjoy a contemporary romance with the brother’s best friend and friends-to-lovers.
