23 parts Complete
Everything she once cherished slipped away in the blink of an eye. After a mugging gone wrong, Hannah is left with brain damage. Years later, she's still trying to come to terms with the fact that her old life is one she'll never get back. Not her ability to write out a sentence or read a good book. Not the strength she once had to run a marathon or her ability to speak without stumbling over the words. The woman she was is gone forever and Hannah is forced to live with constant reminders surrounding her day to day life. Desperate for change, Hannah takes her former best friend from high school up on an offer to move in with her across the country and start a new life. It's the second scariest thing she's ever gone through, but Hannah knows the only chance of living her life is to give up trying to fix the old one that she'll never truly be able to mend. When she arrives, however, Hannah immediately realizes she's made a terrible mistake. This part of the city doesn't fit someone like her and she's ready to turn around before her bags are even out of the car. Until she meets Meggie's boss. David is southern, muscular and, according to Meggie, a grade A prick. But the brooding bar owner seems to have a soft spot for Hannah and is determined to show her that the choice she made to move here wasn't the wrong one and will do whatever it takes to get her to stay. Her second chance at life is becoming more than she imagined and as Hannah gets to know David, she begins to wonder if that second chance at life comes with a second chance at love.

The New Assistant

21 parts Complete Mature

As the CEO of one of the largest investment firms in New York City, Ryan had always been used to getting what he wanted, when he wanted it. He was accustomed to barking orders at his assistants and expecting them to be carried out immediately, without question. So when he hired Mia, a young and ambitious college graduate, as his new assistant, he expected nothing less than the utmost efficiency and subservience from her. Despite Ryan's constant demands and harsh criticisms, Mia refused to back down. She met his gruffness with quiet determination and a fierce intelligence that began to impress even Ryan. An unlikely bond began to form between the wealthy, arrogant businessman and his hardworking assistant. Slowly but surely, Ryan found himself drawn to Mia and Mia began to see past Ryan's rough exterior to the vulnerable man underneath. As they worked side by side, day in and day out, the initial animosity between them turned into a smoldering attraction that threatened to ignite into something more. But with their vast differences in social status and upbringing, could their growing feelings for each other ever hope to overcome the obstacles in their way?
