Measuring Up

Ty has always been the one to stand guard over Nicki, a steadfast protector against the tidal wave of unwanted attention from lesser men. For years, he played the role of the reliable friend, pushing down his own feelings while doing his best to keep her safe. However, as time ticks on and the bond between them deepens, Ty finds himself grappling with a new, tumultuous desire: he wants Nicki not just as a friend, but as something much more.

As Ty confronts his emotions, he faces the daunting challenge of revealing his heart without jeopardizing their longstanding friendship. Nicki, caught in the whirlwind of her own romantic pursuits, remains blissfully unaware of the depth of Ty's feelings. Torn between the fear of losing her and the hope of a blossoming romance, Ty must measure up to his own standards of love, protection, and longing. Their journey unfolds as Ty strives to navigate the complexities of friendship, love, and the courage it takes to truly be vulnerable.
