A grumpy coder who likes his life perfectly organized. A sunshine traveler who lives out of a suitcase. 1,847 miles of distance, and a high-heat connection they can't ignore. Arlo Hayes builds walls for a living—digital ones in his code, and emotional ones in his carefully structured, alphabetized life in Rochester. He prefers silence, routine, and keeping everything exactly where it belongs. Then comes Leo. Chaotic, sun-drenched, and constantly on the move, Leo is the absolute opposite of everything Arlo tolerates. What starts as casual screen-to-screen banter transforms into late-night calls, endless messages, and a scorching-hot digital intimacy neither of them expected. But a relationship built through screens can only burn so hot before the miles between them become impossible to ignore. Arlo has always played it safe, and Leo has never known how to stay in one place. To turn their late-night promises into a reality, one of them will have to make a move. Can they bridge the gap between their perfectly constructed digital world and the messy, beautiful reality of falling in love? All the Time We Didn't Have is a steamy, opposites-attract, grumpy-meets-sunshine MM contemporary romance featuring intense online-to-IRL chemistry, emotional depth, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
