20-year-old Leah Whiteford needs to get away. That's how she finds herself over 2000 miles from home in the bustling city of Chicago that is the furthest thing from the life she has left behind in Los Angeles.
She fully intends to keep her head down, finish her college degree and disappear into the thousands of others in this city and get on with the rest of her life. But that doesn't end up being possible when she bumps into the Scottish, gorgeous and extremely rude Kaiden Lennox and puts herself on his radar.
Kaiden is everything she doesn't need, everything she is running away from. Surely she has learned her lesson about falling for boys that are sure to break your heart? She's already avoiding one dangerous boy, she doesn't need the attention of another.
