"I do love you"

It’s Valentine’s Day, and the last person you expected to see standing on your doorstep is Gwen Miller. She’s your childhood best friend, the popular girl out of your league, and the same person who gently rejected your confession just a month ago to date a guy named Matthew—a guy you warned her gave off bad vibes.

But here she is. She’s ditched Matthew, she’s dressed to kill in her favorite leather jacket, and she’s holding a box of premium chocolates with a sheepish grin. She tells you she was an idiot, that she made a huge mistake, and that she finally realized you’re the one she should have been with all along.

Now, she’s determined to make it up to you. She’s using her high-salary banking money to buy you gifts, she’s laughing at your jokes, and she’s promised to never leave your side again. It seems like the perfect friends-to-lovers fairytale. But behind her bright blue eyes and expensive perfume, Gwen is hiding a dark secret and a fresh trauma. She’s not here because she loves you—she’s here because you’re the only person safe enough to save her.
