After going through so many failed relationships, Amaltheia Kastellanos is tired-and not to mention heartbroken. So she does it. She runs away to a small town, changes her name to Patty Burger, gets a job as a waitress, and adopts a cat named Buns. Just kidding, her car runs out of gas way before all of that's possible. At this point in time, God decides he feels bad for poor Amal. So instead of leaving her completely stranded in the middle of nowhere, he leaves her stranded with an auto repair shop somewhat nearby. But that's not all Amal has in store. With the auto shop comes four good looking guys, surprising friendships, new apartments, and Julien Vaux. With a name sounding like it came from a sexy Eau de Parfum advertisement, Julien Vaux is nothing less than alluring, perceptive, and guarded. Although Amal has sworn herself to a break-maybe a permanent one, she can't help but wonder the answer to the question she's been dreaming of ever since she was a young girl. Eros, is he the one? _______
