Could my teenage crush turn out to be my happily ever after? When I'm left a farmhouse in my father's will, I plan to sell it fast and return to my real life as a film editor in Los Angeles. Jump cut to six months later, and I'm still here, avoiding going through my dad's stuff. Okay, I'm avoiding my grief, too. Then my assistant editor asks if her brother can stay in my guest house while he organizes a charity bike race. Saying yes is easier than coming up with a creative excuse to stay in self-imposed isolation. When Charlie rides up to the house for the first time, I experience a serious flashback. Could this handsome, athletic man be the grown-up version of a boy I fell for at seventeen? There's no way it could be him, right? The minute he opens his mouth to say hello, I instantly know he's the same boy only in a more delicious package-a bronzed god while I'm a pasty film geek. But he doesn't remember me. Why should he? We were only friends for a few months before my dad and I moved for the millionth time. Turns out Charlie does remember me, and we bond over having lost people we loved. Against all odds, there's a spark between us. Sex is one thing-sharing a future is another. We'll both have to change in order to make this crush into something that'll last forever. Autumn Crush is a stand-alone, second chance, childhood friends-to-lovers gay romance with plenty of sweet and steamy small-town goodness.
