About this ebook

The last words I said to my best friend were “I trust you”. Then the world went dark, and I nearly lost everything.

While my best friend’s little sister lost even more.

I promised him that I’d take care of her—but if he knew my current thoughts when it came to Harper, he’d have never trusted me.

She’s too young for me. Too bright to my shadows. And too tempting.

Now I’m stuck in our small town, and I can’t escape her. I’d rather hide in my cabin, restoring what was one lost. Only Harper won’t let me.

I’ve already held onto more secrets than my family knows. I don’t know if I can keep what I feel about her secret too.

She sees beyond my scars and anger, and I know she hides her own just as tightly.

When one kiss changes everything, there’s no going back—even if it shatters everything in our wake.

 

**If You Were Mine is an age gap, best friend’s little sister, tortured hero, small town romance featuring Dorian and Harper. Each book can be read as a complete standalone. An HEA is guaranteed!**

This is an emotional rollercoaster with tragic loss, love and healing, you will likely shed a tear or two, but this age-gap, best friend’s little sister romance will also leave your cheeks sore from smiling. Harper and Dorian’s story is one that will you will feel deeply. This is a story of loss, healing, friendship and love. The resilience to overcome and the courage to love again despite the risks. In addition, there is the joy to getting to know the Cage family and their unique dynamics more.

The way Carrie Ann develops compelling characters with complex family dynamics, secrets, and layers in so much raw emotion, banter, spicy romance, and surprising plot twists, never ceases to amaze me! Both Dorian and Harper stole my heart right away. I mean, the Prologue gutted me, so I was clearly all in!!😅🥺 The slow burn romance was perfectly paced, with the heat ramping up organically! I am loving all the Cage siblings more and more with each book, with the way they support each other!!
