My Brother's Best Friend Lives in Our House Now.

Seventeen-year-old Nicolás is just trying to survive his last year of high school, his mom’s chaotic love for strangers, and the fact that his older brother Lucas has gone mysteriously distant. But then Alejandro Torres—Lucas’s best friend and former neighborhood golden boy—moves into their house temporarily. No big deal. Except he’s hotter now. And shirtless a lot. And kind. And infuriating.



Nick’s doing everything he can not to fall for the guy who used to ignore him, especially when Alex keeps acting like they’re suddenly friends—or more. Between late-night talks, awkward car rides, and way too many feelings, Nick’s stuck in a loop of I hate him / I might love him / someone please sedate me.



It’s not just about Alex. It’s about growing up, stepping out of Lucas’s shadow, and figuring out who he is when the person he’s becoming might actually deserve to be seen.
