-"How did I go from being an independent woman to being a needy woman?"-

Hayley Becker was like any other woman. She had dreams and goals and she was sure of her future. That was until he walked into the restaurant and all of a sudden, she wanted to feel what it felt like to be loved again. In a romantic way.

Aiden Doux was a man who had his life going exactly the way he wanted it to. He started his life over in the US, leaving his old life in France. He just didn't know he'd end up wanting a woman who was the complete opposite of what he'd usually go for.

Although, could they work if they were both once a stranger to each other and then strangers again?
