Mark Holloway took an interest, she thought she'd finally obtain what she'd been dreaming for all this time. She thought wrong. Picking up the pieces from her failed relationship would be difficult but with the help of her best friend Spencer, maybe life wouldn't be so complicated at all, right? Spencer Haywood was an introvert in bottle-rimmed glasses until his freshman year of college. Leaving the books behind, he was caught up in a life of college debauchery. Until he laid eyes on the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen and fell head over heels in love. Too afraid to admit his feelings, he bottled his emotions up, focussing instead on his internship, and eventually becoming one of the most wealthy media barons in the country...and indeed a notorious NYC womaniser. He almost began to forget his emotions. Almost. But when circumstances change, he can't help but let those feelings come back to the surface, until they are ready to turn the world as he knows it completely upside down.
