Alex Morgan wants to build a shopping center on my ancestors' graves. He's infuriatingly charming, maddeningly arrogant-and my brother's best friend.

I came home to stop his plans. He sees dollar signs. I see sacred ground.

At the town hall, I tore his proposal apart. Now the whole town's watching our war play out in public. To calm the chaos, my brother forces us to work together. This is great because now I get to hate him up close.

Somewhere between late-night digs and reluctant teamwork, something shifts.

He starts to see the site the way I do.

And I start to see him as something more than the enemy.

Unexpectedly, an ally, a friend, and maybe a lover.

Then a rival developer threatens to erase everything.
And suddenly, we're not fighting each other-we're fighting for the same future.

One buried in history, sealed with a kiss,
and built on something neither of us expected:
Us.
