Athena Harrow has just lost the remainder of what was once considered important to her. To distance herself she takes a train to the country, but falls asleep and discovers herself in a secluded village in the North of England.
When she tries to find a new job she comes across the handsome Caleb Birch, who is looking for a babysitter and tutor for his nephew, Max.
There is unbearable friction between them at first due to their differing personalities, but when he begins to soften his hard demeanour, she can't hold up the wall that keeps them apart. Will she be able to control her feelings, or will the wall crumble?

He gave one short laugh, and spoke, "that's part of the risk, sweetheart. Besides, I know you want me." Seamlessly, he closed the gap between our bodies and pressed his lips onto mine...
