Through Thick and Thin
Through Thick and Thin—will love finally find its way?
Kendrea Carter has always stood by Thomas Sterling—through childhood struggles, heartbreaks, and every curve life has thrown their way. He’s her best friend, her rock, the one person she can always count on. But when an unexpected kiss changes everything, she’s suddenly seeing Thomas in a whole new light.
For years, Thomas has loved Kendrea from the sidelines, never daring to hope she’d feel the same. But he’s done being the guy everyone overlooks. With a bold plan to change his life—and maybe catch Kendrea’s attention—he brings in a fitness coach to help him turn things around.
Now, as Kendrea watches another woman step into his world, jealousy flares, emotions tangle, and their friendship is tested like never before. Can they navigate the feelings they’ve ignored for so long? Or will their bond break under the weight of what’s been left unsaid?
