An unforgettable past. An unbreakable promise. An unforeseeable journey. An untouchable love. Years have passed since that fateful night changed everything for Charlotte Turner. What followed was submergence in dark waters through which breathing was difficult. Yet life offered a second chance, and even with secrets of her family and demons of past- she came to Boston to breathe again as a new person. To become a doctor and forget everything which left her shattered. After facing near-obliteration of her career and getting publicly humiliated by the brilliant and condescending world-renowned diagnostician, Dr. Ethan Ramsey...who also happened to be her inspiration- Charlotte pledged to never let her resounding past or undulating present destroy chance of having promising future or take away the dreams of a person she promised to fulfill once. And new life brought the gift of friendship and among them, Dr. Bryce Lahela seems to be quite different. His ability to bring forth a smile is hard to ignore and there are Sienna and Landry who always stand with Charlotte. But when a battleground is announced for five coveted positions, enemies start to rise and will go to whatever ends in order to achieve those places. But everything changed when suddenly Charlotte and the last person she ever expected to get involved with are thrust into an intangible situation. Working together, they find that not everything is unveiled about the hospital and the evil which lurks behind its pristine walls are too treacherous to be ignored. What they analyze starts a chain reaction of discoveries spanning to numerous meshed paths having no beginning or end. And when each touch of the person she used to run away from ignites flames of undeniable desire, Charlotte never expected how dangerously a dance of forbidden love has begun which leaves her world completely upside down. This is not a story. This is a chronology of her life. [UNDER REVISION]

***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain. *** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
