    Summary

    1998 — After moving back to her childhood neighborhood in Eltingville, Staten Island, Marzia Lindberg is reunited with four boys she used to call her best friends. She isn’t the same girl she was when she left—and neither are they.

    2008 — Marzia, now a preschool teacher scraping by paycheck to paycheck, posts a Craigslist ad for a roommate. She doesn’t expect a response from her ex. She definitely doesn’t expect to let him move in. But when Bill Dickey shows up on her doorstep with nothing but a duffle bag and a cocky smile, it’s like the past she buried claws its way back to the surface.

    Their history is bitter. Their chemistry is worse. And pretending they’re just roommates? That might be the biggest lie of all.

    [Bill x OC, First Person, Not Beta-Read, Hopelessly Self Indulgent]
