If You Were Mine – Carrie Ann Ryan

If You Were Mine is an emotional, small-town romance built around longing, restraint, and the one line that should never be crossed.

Dorian made a promise the night his world fell apart. He would protect Harper, his best friend’s younger sister, no matter the cost. But promises blur when grief, proximity, and unspoken desire collide. Harper is too young, too hopeful, and far too tempting for a man carrying as many scars as Dorian.

Now stranded in their small town, sharing space neither of them can escape, every stolen glance and accidental touch pushes them closer to something dangerous. As secrets surface and defenses crumble, one kiss changes everything and there is no way back.
