Rosalie Bennett has exactly one problem she hasn't been able to solve. His name is Marcus Jackson. He's ten years younger, her little brother's best friend, and entirely too damn attractive for a man she has spent eight years pretending she doesn't want. In her defense, she didn't know his age or his relationship to her brother the first time they met. Things had already happened… very naked things. They agreed it could never happen again. They are both liars. But Jackson isn't Rosalie's only problem. He's simply the one she enjoys thinking about. The others have been buried somewhere beneath twenty years of work, responsibility, control, and a truly impressive commitment to being fine. Until being "fine" stops working. For the first time in her life, Rose can't fix what's wrong by working harder, taking care of someone else, or pretending it isn't there. So, she walks away from everything and everyone to finally deal with the one person she's spent her whole life avoiding. Herself. When she finally comes home, Jackson has done exactly what she told him to do. He moved on. Now Rosalie has to rebuild a life she actually wants, make peace with the parts of herself she'd rather keep buried, and figure out how the hell she's supposed to stand across a room from the only man she's ever loved while he prepares to marry someone else. Turns out healing is a bitch. So is timing. Wait for Him is a reverse age gap, brother's best friend romance about trauma, healing, found family, second chances, and finally choosing the life you want instead of the one you think you're supposed to have.
