I Could Have Missed This

Noah had given up on life, until a chance encounter gave him a reason to keep going.

After his mother is murdered by a notorious crime family, Noah Wright flees to university, hoping for a fresh start. But a year later, reeling from a suicide attempt, he finds himself back home in Perrancombe, Cornwall.
Rebuilding his life won’t be easy, but with a new job at a queer bookshop, new friends, and a blossoming romance with a handsome but guarded bookworm, Noah dares to dream of something he’s never had before – a future worth living for.

But when the crime family resurfaces, threatening to destroy everything he’s rebuilt, Noah must decide how far he’ll go to fight for his happy ending – before the past tears it away for good.
