The friend zone: a black hole from which there is no escape.
Or so they say.
But Lily Perkins is desperate to climb out of the frigid void and into the scorching embrace of former sailor Deryk "Bull" Roberts. If only she can get her Bull-headed bestie to cooperate.
Saddled with a devastating past and riddled with unanswerable questions, Bull's life is too complicated for romance, especially at the risk of losing his best bud. But he never expected his attraction for Lily to burn so hot.
As lines are crossed and challenges are made, can they find a way out of the friend zone abyss? Or will the darkness of his past devour their spark?
