Since you were a kid, you've always known how to work for what you want. Your family was rooted in working hard and it will pay off. As one of the new recruits for The Paradis Post journalist team, a top-line newspaper company in the big city, you still live by this. However, Jean Kirstein, your ex-boyfriend from high school and new coworker, couldn't disagree more.
Same as he was five years prior, the hotshot valley boy from Trost happens to get everything and anything he wants. While his father left behind a fortune for his only offspring, Jean flew through college without spending a penny out of his own pocket. He has the funds, a guaranteed spot as an editor, and he has people - women who absolutely adore him - except for you.
The only thing the two of you can agree is on that you both need a partner.
For you, a boyfriend could ease your parents' worries about being alone in the city. For him, a girlfriend could save him from his family hounding him about when he'll finally settled down. Is it possible for the two of you to come together a second time around to or will working together only remind you of the past?
