Sometimes when I think back, I wonder how I got here. How did the sad, scared thirteen-year-old boy forced to move across the country to live with an aunt he barely knew end up married to his best friend and raising seven kids together?

Sure, the marriage is for the benefits, and the kids are Riot’s siblings, but still. It’s a life I never imagined, but one I wouldn’t change for the world.

Except for one thing.

I love Riot a little more than a best friend should. Or a lot more. Sometimes I imagine what his lips feel like pressed up against mine, or how it would feel if he calls me husband and truly means it.

It’s a secret I kept for years, terrified that if Riot found out, it would ruin everything. Because having him in my life in any way I could get him is better than no Riot at all.

Lately, it’s been harder to keep my feelings to myself. And when one secret is revealed, all the others start to unravel.

All I could do at this point is be honest and hope I don’t lose my best friend in the process.

Things I Wished We Said is a standalone slow-burn, best friends-to-lovers contemporary MM romance. Expect tons of family dynamics, pining, an oblivious MC, and so many cuddles and head kisses.
