Friends-to-lovers Romance. When the safest place she knows stops being her hometown and starts being his shoulder, distance is no longer their biggest decision. Short logline: An anxious small-town author and a driven bridge engineer spend years as long-distance best friends before finally admitting that home is not a place on a map, but the way they learn to hold each other's fears and futures. Cassidy has always believed home was a fixed point: her parents' kitchen table, the willow by the lake, and the children's bookstore that put her first picture book in its front window. She knows every creak in the hallway, every dent in the counter, every face at her school visits. What she does not know how to do is ask for more without feeling like she is breaking something she is supposed to protect. The night her quietly written story about anxiety and dark hallways becomes a real book, she is ready to celebrate with the one person who has always felt like the safest part of her week-her best friend Micah. Instead, he is miles away in a control room, watching another kind of structure take its first terrifying step into the world. Micah has spent his adult life building things that are supposed to hold: cables, spans, load paths, a reputation as the engineer you want in the room when failure is not an option. When a promotion forces him to choose between being there for Cassidy's launch and keeping a newly finished bridge safe, he does what he has always done-he takes the weight quietly on his own shoulders and assumes he can fix the fallout later. What he does not expect is how much it will shake the trust between them, or how deeply he will regret the sight of an empty space where he should have been cheering her on. From the first awkward apology in a café halfway between their towns to the late-night legal pad where they finally write down what they really want, Cassidy and Micah learn that grown-up love is less about grand gestures and more about the conversations you have when no one is watching. As his job pulls him to a new city and a half-built bridge, and her work roots her more deeply in the community that raised her, they are forced to walk the narrow space between "stay" and "go," "someday" and "not yet." When they dare to name an eighteen-month plan that might bring them to the same address, it is not a fairy-tale escape but a deliberate, fragile choice they will have to revisit over and over again. When Your Shoulder Became Home is a tender, character-driven friends-to-lovers romance about anxiety that tells the truth, work that matters, and the quiet bravery it takes to stop disappearing from your own life. If you have ever stayed on a call ten minutes longer just to listen to someone breathe, or realized that the place you finally feel like yourself is a person and not a postcode, Cassidy and Micah's story will feel like sitting down on a familiar couch, leaning carefully into the space you have both spent years learning how to hold.
