Avery Cole is rich. Camden Wilson is not.
They couldn't be more different. However, what they both share are their cold exteriors and their difficulty in trusting others, which causes them to clash fiercely when they first meet.
Fed up with Avery's attitude towards money, Camden shocks everyone when his surly self devises a challenge to prove her wrong. He has exactly one month to show her that money is not equivalent to happiness and that you are, in fact, better off without a Rolls-Royce, a private jet and daddy's credit card. All the while Avery is working to prove him wrong.
Can Camden show Avery the silver lining of living rough? And as Avery delves deeper into the dark past that left Camden the guardian of two young girls with two huge hearts, can she remain as cold and unattached as she intended to?
Or will she learn that there is a certain kind of beauty that lies within poverty?
