Lily hasnt always had it easy, but thats never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. Shes come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lilys life suddenly seems almost too good to be true.
Ryle is assertive, stubborn, even a little arrogant. Hes also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesnt hurt. Lily cant get him out of her head maybe . But Ryles complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she cant help but wonder what made him that way in the first place.
As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.
