On the Road to Ruin — A forced proximity, brothers best friend romance novel
Teagen West has made a mistake. Moving to another state with her short-term boyfriend seemed like a good idea to escape her grief, but when he gets down on one knee and proposes, she runs back to her old life with nothing but regrets and a suitcase. When she gets home, she goes to the one person she knows won’t tell her family she’s back—her brother's best friend.
Dominic Graves is not having fun. Not only are his parents sending him across the country to franchise the family business, but when his best friend's little sister shows up on his doorstep like a runaway bride, he agrees to harbor her like a fugitive. That is, until she suggests a detour to his trip to get her things back to Arizona. The two of them enter a mutually beneficial agreement—she gets her things back and poses as his girlfriend to get his parents off his back.
The rules on the road are simple: no strings and no feelings. But the miles have a way of blurring the lines, and sometimes, the road to ruin can lead you exactly where you're meant to be.

Theo West is running out of road. Finishing the bucket list his late brother left behind seemed simple enough—until he reaches the final stop. Vermont. The place filled with memories he’s spent years trying to outrun. With only a cryptic clue to guide him and a drinking habit he’s pretending isn’t a problem, Theo heads back into the nostalgia, heartbreak, and unfinished business waiting in Nettles.

Their plan is simple: keep their lives separate. Help each other where they can. Avoid the sparks neither of them has the strength to entertain. But the roads in Nettles have a way of crossing when you least expect it, and soon, Theo and Daisy find themselves drawn together by grief, history, and the hope that they aren’t as broken as they once believed.
