Best Friends Forever (And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798295652486)

What if the one person who feels like home is the one you never have the courage to choose?

Noah and Lilah have been inseparable since childhood - bike rides, shared secrets, best friend pacts, and a Valentine's Day tradition they kept every single year. She was his best friend, the girl who understood him, the person who stayed when the world fell apart.

But after Noah's mom died when he was fifteen, loving someone too deeply felt dangerous. And Lilah became the one person he was terrified to lose.

One summer before senior year of college, everything between them finally changed. A single, fragile season where the line between friendship and something more dissolved completely. But instead of choosing her, Noah pulled away - convinced he had to protect himself from the heartbreak he was sure would come.

What he didn't know was that Lilah didn't hate him.

Now, a few years later, Noah is the groom and Lilah is the maid of honour.

As secrets are revealed, every memory, every mistake, every year of silence crashes into each other. Neither of them planned to confront the feelings they buried. But some loves don't disappear no matter how much time has passed..or how wrong the timing is.

Told in a dual timeline woven with nostalgia, heartbreak, and aching slow-burn tension, Best Friends Forever (And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves) is a story about childhood promises, missed chances, and the one person you never truly get over.
