Love & Other Complications on
KISS Reading App

I’ve been in love with my older brother’s best friend since I was a pre-teen. He’s off-limits, forbidden, and sees me as nothing more than an annoying kid sister. For years, I’ve pined after him, wishing he’d notice me.

And then he does.

But now I’m not sure if his feelings are genuine or if the years of pent up emotions are making me see more into this than there really is, and that I am nothing more than a convenient—and very willing—rebound, distracting him from the pains of his past. I thought giving him my heart would be all I ever wanted, but now that he has it in his hands, I realize how easily he could break it…without even meaning to.

Because nothing hurts as bad as finding out you’re only second-best.
