Chapter 1

I'm cold.

I'm alone.

I'm not angry... at least not anymore.

But here I sit. Alone. And Numb.

You think on a Friday morning I would be at the office busy with phone calls, returning emails, meeting with clients, and proving to my boss time and time again that I'm his girl to get shit done...to close the deal like I've done so many other times.

But after a year of completely throwing myself in my work, sleeping at the office because I refuse to go back to my apartment and using the typical excuse that I stayed late to work on a project, and becoming emotionless to everything and everyone around me, my boss has had enough.

"Hannah, you need a vacation. And it's not negotiable."
