The Roads Between Us: Contemporary Romance

A summer road trip was supposed to bring them closer. Five lifelong friends Rae, Eli, Harper, Jude, and Sienna pile into a borrowed van and set out to chase freedom, open skies, and a reunion music festival in California. But under the laughter and playlists lie secret desires, unspoken pasts, and hearts bruised by things no one talks about anymore. Rae is the glue of the group, always the peacemaker. She’s been quietly in love with Jude since high school, but he’s never looked at her that way not when Harper, radiant and complicated, is around. Jude, meanwhile, is carrying a secret of his own: he’s in love, but not with who everyone thinks. Sienna, ever the romantic, suspects something and tries to play matchmaker, while Eli, the loyal and guarded one, watches Rae with a longing he would never dare voice. But it’s Harper who carries the deepest scars. After surviving a toxic relationship that shattered her sense of worth, she has sworn off love. That is, until Eli stoic, steady, unexpectedly kind begins to see through her defenses. For the first time, she feels truly safe. But when her ex resurfaces mid-trip, and the memories she’s buried come rushing back, Harper’s healing begins to unravel. As secrets spill in roadside diners, dusty motel rooms, and on moonlit desert highways, friendships are tested, confessions made, and hearts laid bare. They learn that love isn't always about timing it’s about courage. And sometimes, the person you least expect is the one who knows your heart best.
