Chapter 1

Ivy Sawyer had to fight to keep her head above water her whole life. So far she mostly managed to do that. That was until one October night. But the universe was not done with her yet. Turns out that a piece of newspaper can turn your whole life upside down. Or maybe it's not the piece of paper that turned her around but dark green eyes and an oddly familiar face...

Gideon Moretti had to constantly proof himself to everyone around him. Life shaped him into the cold and ruthless man he is today. He never lets anyone get too close. Until the girl hasn't stopped thinking about for years suddenly shows up in his kitchen.
