Layla Harris enjoys a simple life and is happy with her unofficial boyfriend, Jackson. He's kind, caring, respectful and intelligent; everything she could ask for.
After completing her final year at university, she enrols in a summer art course where she meets the talented artist Arlo Daniels. He is working on an exhibition for the local gallery and is everything that Jackson is not. He's confident, cheeky, sexy and maybe a little narcissistic.
Layla finds Arlo too forward and rude, but he grows a soft spot for her. She begins to see his walls come down, which poses a threat to her relationship with Jackson.
There's attraction.
There's lust.
And... there's heartbreak.
