What secrets would you keep for the one you love?
5 years ago Lena made a pact with herself that she would never date again. After being left heartbroken by her high school sweet heart, Lena became laser focused on the dream University and then the dream job.
Not getting distracted by boys was easy in a small town. Lena had even made it through her first year at University without falling for any men.
That was until she met Hamish Martin. The ridiculously good looking TA in her intro to Chemistry class.
Lena needing a tutor to pass the class and keep her scholarship makes it even harder to stick to her contractually binding, self-made agreement that no man would ever break her heart again.
As Lena gets closer to Hamish and realizes that he has a fiancé, she finds it hard to let go of the feelings she tried so desperately to fight. To make things more complicated, Hamish seems to be embroiled in secrets any mystery that only draw Lena closer in.
Will getting closer to Hamish force Lena to let her guard down?
