The Distance Between Us
Eight years ago, Ethan Cole let Noah Reyes walk away. Neither of them ever learned the whole truth about why.
Now Ethan is a rising corporate lawyer in Boston, disciplined enough to turn every uncertainty into a plan. Noah is a documentary photographer who has built a life around movement, independence, and never waiting for someone who might not choose him.
They haven't spoken in eight years.
Then Ethan's uncle dies-and leaves them a house together.
There's only one catch: before they can sell it, Ethan and Noah must live under the same roof for six months.
Back in the weathered coastal house where they first fell in love, old habits return faster than either man expects. So do old arguments. Late-night conversations become dangerous. Accidental touches stop feeling accidental. And when they discover that the breakup they've blamed on each other for nearly a decade may have been built on missed calls, fear, and everything they were too young to say, staying emotionally detached becomes impossible.
But loving each other again is only the beginning.
Ethan's career is pulling him toward the life he's spent years building. Noah's biggest photography opportunity could send him across the country. This time, neither man wants to sacrifice himself for love-and neither wants to lose what they've finally found again.
Set against the rocky Massachusetts coast, The Distance Between Us is an emotional contemporary M/M romance about second chances, chosen family, ambition, grief, and learning that leaving is not always the opposite of staying.
For readers who love slow-burn tension, forced proximity, second-chance romance, mature queer characters, emotional angst, found family, and a hard-earned happily-ever-after.
