One Perfect Mistake

One Perfect Mistake

Trina Myers has spent five years keeping Emmett Bates exactly where he belongs: safely categorized as charming, infuriating, and absolutely off-limits.

Then one perfect wedding night mistake blows every boundary apart.

Emmett has always been the easy one-the man who can charm a room, smooth over a crisis, and make everyone feel seen. But with Trina, nothing has ever been casual. Not the chemistry. Not the friendship. And definitely not the feelings he's been hiding for years.

When a career-making promotion threatens to move Emmett from Dallas to Chicago, their brand-new relationship suddenly comes with an expiration date. Trina is used to fixing problems with schedules, spreadsheets, and contingency plans. Emmett refuses to become another item she can organize. He wants the one thing she has never been good at giving: the truth about what she wants.

With their closest friends watching, family expectations closing in, and a moving truck getting closer by the day, Trina must decide whether loving Emmett means letting him go-or finally asking him to stay.

One Perfect Mistake is an emotionally grounded, fade-to-black friends-to-lovers romance about choosing love without guarantees, learning to be wanted instead of merely needed, and discovering that the messiest decisions can become the most permanent ones.

Perfect for readers who love sharp banter, aching yearning, romantic tension, and hard-won HEAs.

Content warnings: Strong language, alcohol use, intoxication, family tension, and career/relocation stress. Romantic intimacy fades to black.
