She didn't mean to fall in love with the handsome strangers. They didn't mean to fall in love ever.

Opal Mailo has a plan: climb the corporate ladder, perfect her appearance, and finally belong in the elite world of high finance. Fixing her teeth is next on her list. Dr. Apollo Merrill is the orthodontist she's paying to make it happen. He's a sunbeam in a white coat - kind, maddeningly unreadable, and far too observant. He notices the things no one else does, sees past her careful polish, and looks at her in a way that feels a little too personal. As Opal's teeth straighten, the rest of her life begins to unravel. The burnout is blinding. The pull towards Apollo is inconvenient. The "perfect" version of herself is starting to look like a stranger. Caught between who she's becoming and who she's always been, Opal begins to wonder if perfection is worth the cost - and if maybe she doesn't need to be flawless to be worthy of love.

So, of course, he started to bump into her, started to see her smile at every turn, and soon, he started to seek her out for himself. Soon, seeking turned into yearning... Soon, yearning turned into stolen kisses... "Soon," they realized, wasn't always guaranteed.
