Ava Holm.
She is trying to juggle being a single mom, having a full time job, and dealing with the emotional baggage of her previous relationship. Difficult? Very. Bordering on impossible? With her lack of support- yes.
But don't let that fool you! Ava is strong and brave. She's learned from her mistakes, and is more than just 'determined' to not make them again.
After her boss decides to retire and hand the company over to his son, Ava becomes his new personal assistant. Right from the start he rubs off wrong on her- clearly showing he is the playboy of all rumors.
What this playboy doesn't know, though, is that with every harsh comment and perverted look, he's dragging Ava deeper into her past.
A path she may not be able to leave again.
Maddie has one rule: Don't catch feelings
But what happens when she finds solace with another broken person? And what happens when they inadvertently help each other start to heal? Do rules change? Do feelings grow? Can her broken actually be fixed, or has it scarred too deep for that?
