What do you do when your past becomes your new neighbor? Noah thought he was safe with his childhood friend, and all that awaited them was a lifetime of happiness. When the unthinkable happens, he hides away to lick his wounds, but his heart remains frozen in time. Unable to move forward, Noah finds that his new neighbor is the very man who has him bound in the past. Is this the closure he's been seeking to end that chapter of his life or will he break free from the chains that have coiled his heart and learn to trust again? Bound by the shackles of pressure, Lucas lost the person he thought he'd spend his life with. Years pass, but he's unable to resign himself to the fate of living without the love of his life. He wants nothing more than to get Noah back. He was raised to take what he wants, and he's determined to obtain it. Will he succeed or will the past devour them? The Hideaway Neighbor is a second chance M/M romance that features childhood friends to lovers, found family, and breaking through comfort zones. It is the fourth book of the Corio Heights series and can be read as a standalone but will be more enjoyable when read as a series.
