44 parts Complete MatureEmerson Rose is many things.
She's a faithful girlfriend to her possessive boyfriend, Brody. She's an obedient daughter to her considerably controlling mother. She's a reluctant finance major in her second year of college. She's a determined wanna-be writer in her free time. And she's a loving dog mom to her eleven year old German Shepard.
What she is not, however, is bold or impulsive. So when she is somehow able to stop an alley fight in the dark of night and save a handsome stranger from a gruesome beating, it's not exactly a normal occurrence.
Emerson expects this to be an isolated incident. She doesn't plan on ever seeing this stranger again and she's even able to forget the whole thing ever happened.
But fate seems to be pushing the two together and Emerson finds herself intrigued by this guy. His cavalier attitude, his flirtatious banter, his admittedly attractive face. Somehow, a new friendship is sparked, despite the two being so drastically different.
Their friendship is innocent enough. Or so she thinks. What happens when the line between friendship and relationship starts to blur?
Emerson's life is dramatically changing, all because of this guy. This charming, arrogant, funny, seemingly perfect stranger.
You can call him Ghost.
