Really sees her.And he falls-fast, hard, without hesitation.He doesn't flinch at her scars.Doesn't back away from her bristling defenses.Doesn't apologize for wanting her with a quiet intensity that shakes her foundations.Izzy tells herself she doesn't need anyone.Jonah is determined to prove she deserves someone who shows up… every single day.He'll build her a deck, fix her bookshelves, a brand-new kitchen-hell, he'll build her a whole damn life if she lets him.All she has to do is take the first step toward him.
