Delayed By You: Best Friends to Lovers - Buss

She's always been his. He's always been hers. Best friends since they were kids, everyone always assumed they'd end up together. But Rocco and Jasmine forge their own life paths. Despite remaining close, she discovers she needs a break from the life she's been living in Chicago. When she moves to New York, things change for him. And he panics, thinking he's lost her forever.
Rocco
Since the day she moved in across the street when we were kids, Jasmine has held my attention with her sparkling green eyes and spunky spirit. She's independent and headstrong, and I've always admired that about her. Hiding behind my bachelor status, no one is the wiser about the secret feelings I harbor for her.
Jasmine
Rocco has always been by my side. Whether it's making me laugh, teaching me something new, or sharing confidences, he's been steadfast. When he morphs into a man seemingly overnight, I find it tough to temper my attraction to him. But he doesn't see me as anything more than a friend.
The STEEL men will STEAL your heart.
