She's chasing a dream. He's running from everything. But some scars speak the same language.
Sarah Blake came to New York with nothing but ambition and a past she can't escape. Quiet, guarded, and more resilient than she looks, she lands an internship at Foster Publishing-her first step toward becoming an author.
Grant Foster is her boss's son. Rich. Sharp. Untouchable. But beneath the expensive suits and charming smile is a man unraveling behind closed doors.
When their worlds collide, secrets come to light, emotions ignite, and a push-pull relationship spirals into something neither of them can control. He's everything she should stay away from. She's everything he never knew he needed.
But love isn't always soft-and sometimes the ones who save us are just as broken as we are.
