Adeline Hart and Alexander Harrington couldn't be any more opposite from each other. She seeks a soul consuming love and he seeks a thrill in life that keeps him moving around. Both are slapped with the reality of their bad habits. When Adeline's best friend calls her out on the way she throws her heart out to any man she deems suitable, Addie suddenly doesn't want to be that girl. She vows to wait for the love she seeks. Taking a break from men, in the romantic sense anyway. Addie wants to focus on her career, on herself, on her sisters wedding and definitely NOT on her sisters best friend with the pretty smile. When Alexander's best friend calls him out on his commitment issues, he discovers that he might actually like someone. Sure, she's his best friends sister but he actually likes this girl. Xander wants to try. He can commit to something, right? When he imagines what it might be like to be with Adeline, he can't really imagine anyone else. He wants to try. He wants her. He just might be too late.
