She's a loner for a reason... but when she's asked to take care of her estranged, orphaned nephew she can't say no. Can the help of a kind-hearted counselor and this heartbroken boy finally give her the courage to face her past demons and learn to love again?
Cassie: Foster care stole more from me than I will ever admit. It's easier to shut out the world and stay within the safety of my job at the library and my tidy, little bungalow. But then I get a desperate call from a sister I never thought I'd see again. She's dying. She wants me to take her kid. The thought of that boy going into foster care is too much. But I don't know what the hell I'm doing. How do I give him the life he deserves when I barely know how to take care of myself?
Felix: I can't think of anything worse than moving in with my weird aunt. I miss Mom and don't know how to deal with this constant ache in my chest and stomach. The only person I don't mind so much is Troy-the counselor who's been assigned to my case. He seems pretty cool... way better than my quiet, neat-freak aunt and the constant look of worry on her face.
Troy: When I first met Cassie and Felix, my heart was triggered in a way I didn't expect. Cassie may seem timid, but there's a quiet strength within her. She's seen evil-I can sense it. More than anything, I want to help her... but can I break down her barriers in order to help this boy? And will she ever open up enough to let a guy like me win her heart?
