Description
Lee Hammond has spent her adult years trying to shed the innocent persona she had created to endure her strict, overbearing parents, but it seems the world continues to only see that sweet and quirky "Emmaleah". Some habits are just too hard to break. When circumstances lead her to a new, albeit temporary job, can Lee prove herself to be a strong and independent force of nature, or is she cursed to follow the well worn path of adorableness she's so accustomed to walking? Dean Ryan has just recently taken over his father's corporation, but he refuses to fully hand over the reigns. Ryan is walking a thin line to prove to his father that he has everything under control. But does he? After an awkward encounter with the unique Emmaleah Hammond, Dean's not sure of anything anymore. Dean shows Lee that being an independent adult doesn't have to be boring and Lee reminds him of that very same thing.
