Holding Avery

Avery
I have a big secret. I’m in love with my best friend. But he doesn’t know and if I can help it he never will. If he ever found out it would be the end of our friendship and I couldn’t live with that. And now I’ve complicated my life by moving in with him. How am I supposed to hide the way I feel when he’s everywhere I go? How can I keep myself from falling in love with him even more when he touches me and I see how great he is every day I get up? Until…he brings someone home. My silly high school crush ends up crushing my soul and the only thing to do is run. But can I outrun the feelings I have for Murphy or am I only fooling myself that I will ever get Murphy out of my head and out of my heart? This crush on my best friend might kill me!

Murphy
I have a secret that I’ve only told one other person…I’m in love with my best friend. And she doesn’t even know it. So how do I tell her I want to be more than just friends? How do I show her how I really feel? And then she’s gone all because of a stupid misunderstanding and my chance to keep her safe and make her fall in love with me vanishes in the night like she vanishes from my home. But I’m not a man who quits so easily. I’ll hunt Avery down and steal her back until I can make her see…the only thing I ever want to do with my life is spend it…Holding Avery!
