Aiselinn James is a normal young lady in her early twenties. Working at her local bookstore until dusk, studying architecture during her free time, playing with her dog at midnight, and sipping coffee at three a.m.are what makes her who she is.
Grey Ronan Bassinger is the quiet guy nobody notices. Lurking in the shadows, writing almost obsessively whenever he has some time to spare, reading anything he can buy at an affordable price, and simply watching the world all but slip through his fingers - he struggles to acquire his parents' approval. But the only way to do that is by marrying someone, or at least dating.
When the two meet at Aiselinn's work, he can't get her out of his head. Neither can she.
Then he proposes the perfect opportunity for both to get well off.
She gets a boyfriend, and consequently a good reputation.
He gets his parents off his back.
Right?
He just doesn't know that the road to success is way bumpier than he imagined it to be. Especially as his object of attention is a feisty, independent woman who doesn't fall for any simple pick up line.
And Aiselinn's not going to fall without a fight.
Will he be able to do at least one good thing in his life?
