When Mara Everett begins her final year of art school, the last thing she expects is to be captivated by Lucas Reed, the charismatic guest lecturer. At 38, Lucas is brilliant, intense, and initially dismissive of Mara, seeing her as just another student. Despite his initial coldness, circumstances bring them together when Mara seeks his guidance for a major project.

As they meet up for art sessions, Lucas's walls begin to crumble, and he discovers a depth in Mara that he hadn't seen before. One evening, Lucas invites Mara to his home studio to show her a rare collection of his works. Unexpectedly, a city-wide lockdown traps them together in his house, forcing them into close quarters.

As days turn into weeks, the enforced proximity allows Mara and Lucas to slowly uncover each other's hidden layers. Conversations flow, barriers break down, and their connection deepens into a profound and unexpected romance.

Mara has always been in the shadows of her three sisters. First there's Tate, the youngest, who has an incredible amount of talent and passion for dance. Then there's Adalynn, the most popular girl in the junior class who is embarrassed to have a sister as lame as Mara. And finally, there's Baileigh, the oldest of the four and Mara's best friend who moved across the country last summer to follow her dreams. Out of the four sisters, Mara is the only one with absolutely no plans, but she likes it that way. All she's looking forward to is following Baileigh to Los Angeles after graduation. Until then, she's fine with being the girl in the hallway that no one talks to, and she likes drinking smoothies alone at Bigfoot's Diner. She prefers it that way. But what happens when Mara is thrust into the world full of drama that she has always been able to avoid? Will she be able to find her way back out? Or will she want to stay?

When Jeanette's father leaves his entire business empire to her and presumably passes, she is forced to manage his assets and businesses. Unfortunately, her qualifications are for being a teacher, not a CEO, so she agrees to marry Daniel, her late brother's best friend and childhood crush, because her father's will forces her to marry in order for her to sell Lucas Industries. They strike a deal. He runs the business while she returns to teaching-but he's determined to make her fall for him because, although he became so good at hiding his feelings that she gave up on pursuing him, he's always been obsessed with her. Through carefully placed gestures, unwavering devotion, and a past neither of them has fully faced, Daniel works his way back into Jeanette's heart. But when an accident puts him in danger, she realizes the truth-she never stopped loving him and she doesn't have to run anymore.
