Especially since I’m scraping by as a teacher, sharing an apartment with two friends, and an exciting Friday night means binge-watching Dateline episodes.

On a mission to find his missing mentor, Thorne finds himself suddenly mated to Laurel, a beautiful, driven, but damaged human awoken from a time long since past.

Six years ago, I made a mistake. The worst mistake I could have ever possibly made. I fell in love with the wrong person and … I told him. Ryan’s always been with me ever since I can remember. It’s been the two of us—side by side. Through every new beginning, every new "family", and every failure. Is it any wonder that the love I had for him turned into something different—something deeper? Something utterly rotten? And is it any wonder that he hates me for it now?

My new co-worker … not a fan. Well, I do like the way he looks, the way he moves, and the way his forearms flex when he rolls the sleeves of his dress shirt up.

She immediately shuts down my advances, so I opt for the road less traveled - the friend zone.
