Charlotte

Love is absolutely like the fairy tales you read in books. He loves her. She loves him. He drops to one knee and an extravagant wedding follows. I've seen it happen first-hand for Emma, Melanie, even Eddie in his own way.

But that'll never be my reality.

I've fallen for Jason. My neighbor, my best friend... my step-sister's ex-husband. If I tell him, I risk more than one friendship in my life.

After a night we can't remember, and of a twist of fate, I might have a chance at my own perfect epilogue ending, too.

Jason

I didn't know how much trouble I'd be in when Charlotte moved in next door. I fell more in love with her with each passing day. She means the world to me and I'd do anything to make her happy.

While I wish things were different, I don't dare to dream that she could love me back.

To be with her, I'd have to face my fear of losing her. But if I tell her everything, I'll have a chance to give her the happily ever after she deserves.
