Mine - Paperback

by Stephanie Philomena (Author)

He has never known love before. She is all the love he needs.

All her life, Genevieve Torres has done what she was told to do. Her Mexican father and French mother encouraged hard work, financial security, and stability. She has the six-figure salary working for a prestige law firm in Beverly Hills and the sizeable nest egg to match. But since the death of her father, she contemplates if this life is what she truly wants. Her family has all scattered, and her best friend, November Day, relocated for love to Buffalo, New York. Genevieve feels stuck, watching everyone else move on.On Valentine's Day, November suggests Genevieve follow her dream of opening an all-romance bookstore and coffee bar in Buffalo. Genevieve takes the leap, relocating her life to focus on the business plan, yet never expected the friendship she forms with her introverted, book loving, next-door neighbor, Asher Adams.

Asher has always been content behind the scenes in work and life. He's used to being overlooked and cast aside. Yet when Genevieve crashes into his life, he isn't quite sure he's okay continuing with the status quo. For once, Asher wants someone to truly see him. During Star Wars movie marathons, shared meals, kayak lessons, and co-parenting puppies, Genevieve discovers Asher is so much more...maybe even more than a friend.
