Almost Never Apart

What if the one person you never expected to see again is the only one who can bring you back to life?

Mia Evian has never been one to believe in fate. But when she unexpectedly runs into Preston Maddox-the boy she hasnt seen in over a year-at a university house party in the heart of London, she starts to wonder if the universe is playing tricks on her.

Preston is different now. Quiet. Distant. Determined to lead a safe, uneventful life under the radar. But Mia knows better-she knows Prestons hiding, not just from the world but from a past that still haunts him.

The two share a complicated history. Theres tension-crackling, electric tension-and unspoken feelings buried under sarcasm and sidelong glances. Mia tells herself its platonic. Totally friendly. Completely manageable.

But when she discovers Prestons plan to live like a ghost-to coast through life without ever really feeling it-Mia makes it her mission to pull him out of the shadows. To show him what it means to actually live: to chase joy, to take risks, to let go.

Only, Prestons past isnt something he can just escape. And if the wrong people in London find out who he really is, his attempt at a quiet life could explode into something much darker-for both of them.

Heartfelt, witty, and quietly intense, this is a story of second chances, hidden truths, and the fragile courage it takes to let someone back in-even when everything feels like it could fall apart.

If you love slow-burn romance, tangled pasts, and stories about rediscovering yourself through someone else-this is the book youve been waiting for.
