Gwendolyn Winston is always expected to do as she's told-- so when her parents decided she was to marry the man named Charles Porter to keep the family name healthy and alive, they expected her to listen and deal with it. In her anger, she runs away from home, and after hours of wandering aimlessly in the forest, she becomes lost-- and a young boy comes to her rescue. She lives with him and his family in their cozy cottage in the middle of the woods, hidden from the rest of the world. Her and (James) fall in love, and with the wedding mere weeks away, she hasn't got the slightest idea what she's to do. James however, has a plan-- will it work?
Gwendolyn was different. There was no doubt about it.
She was told constantly by her friends that she had a body to die for.
She was sarcastic and was never one to entertain the circus. If she had something to say she would say it.
After being cheated on by her ex, exacting revenge on him, and being harrased by the younger one of her bosses, Gwendolyn manages to get a new job with the help of her Best friend working for the fearsome Xavier Wells.
He was cold, distant and had a mysterious past. He had always worn dark sunglasses, even when there was no sun.
Xavier found himself lost, not knowing what to do, everytime he was with Gwendolyn or if he even thought about her.
His dark past taught him that people couldn't love, it was just lust or too much to drink. Until her. Gwendolyn made him feel again.
Though he warned her everytime that she must not fall for him. They both fell before realizing it.
Now she was his and He would not lose her as well.
