Ben Anderson wanted to sing, unaware of the money and fame that would come with it. Once he had everything, he realised that all he really needed was Hailey Wilson, his childhood best friend that he hadn't seen in five years, who all his songs were about.
Hailey was fine without Ben. He had left her in London for his big break in L.A., and they ended before they even begun. She refused to sulk over a popstar, even if that popstar was once her favourite person.
They went from knowing each other their whole lives, to being complete strangers. All they had were memories of the past and an undeniable attraction, but when was that ever enough?
