Some people are worth the risk. Kels Stevens and Craig Sullivan are wired the same way: both need control, and both are terrified of vulnerability.
Kels has spent years keeping her world small, convinced it's easier not to need people than risk giving them the power to hurt her. Craig has spent more than a year quietly orbiting Kels, wanting her from a distance and waiting until he's certain where he stands before risking more. So when they finally stop pretending there isn't something between them, she offers him closeness on terms she thinks she can control, convinced keeping him at arm's length will be enough to survive when it ends.
What starts as an arrangement she thinks she can manage quickly becomes anything but. Craig is patient in ways Kels has never experienced before, steady enough that she finds herself giving him more of herself without realising it. For the first time, she knows what it feels like to be truly seen and lets herself believe she might actually get to keep it.
THIS WON'T END WELL is an emotionally intimate contemporary romance about vulnerability, learning what it means to be loved, and discovering that some people are worth the risk.
