Hudson Ellis is good at his job. Somehow, he manages not to annoy people when he knocks at their doors and asks them to contribute to the charity he works for - instead, he gets them to sign up for sponsoring programmes and fish whatever spare change they have out of their pockets. Even the infamously tough residents of New York City are falling victim to Hudson's easy-going ways and wide smile; that is, until one woman renders him speechless with sarcastic refusals and slams her door in his face. Perhaps Hudson would be able to forget her - if it wasn't for the fact that she lives on the same floor of the next apartment over, and they both have floor-to-ceiling windows that allow for a rather generous view into each other's flats.

"This is a story about a boy who lost his home. And a girl who lost herself. In the end, they might find more than what they were looking for." - REVIEWS: "The homeless boy holds an important message, which I think is 'you don't need money to be happy'. I also love how in these stories the roles are switched since in most wattpad books it's the girl who's vulnerable." -@Cheshiii "Very beautiful and unique story, no doubt it's one of the best on Wattpad!" -@emilarad - Book 2 in the "Pure Love Tales" series. Highest ranks: #3 in New Adult, #5 in Short Story.
