Heart of Stone

I fell hard for my best friend, but he’ll never love me back.

Hunter Stone has been my protector since childhood, my safe place in a world that’s been anything but kind.
The scars of his past built walls around his heart, and no one has ever broken through.
He’ll do anything for me, anything except let me in.
Hunter won’t allow another man near me, but he still won’t admit I’m his.
His hands are rough, his kisses demanding, and I hate how much I crave both.
I’m done being his friend with benefits, his “go-to” girl.
So I’m walking away, even if it breaks me.

Because if Hunter Stone can’t love me the way I love him, then I have to learn to live without him.
But when I finally try to move on, he decides to fight for me.
I’ve always been his.
The question is, has he ever been mine?
