Hayden had it all planned: a prestigious degree, a one-way ticket out of Kentucky, and a career at Blackhills-the most exclusive private equity firm in Manhattan. She was ready to be untouchable. Until the doors opened to reveal Eric. He is the ghost she couldn't outrun, the rival who stole her top-ranking spots in every class and the only person who can see through her professional armour.

That is, until she runs into a shadow she can't seem to shake. Luke Cooper.

Who knew that life could still be considered something worth living even in the face of death?
