Ava Grace had always dreamed of moving out for one reason. To get away from her parents. And her cheating ex boyfriend of course. Now that she has finally managed to escape her parents iron grip and her depressing past, she's failing most of her college classes, barely scraping together rent and hanging on a thread to her job. She thought it would be easier, living by herself, but she thought wrong. All she had was a couple dollars, a suitcase full of memories and a broken heart.
But then, suddenly, a mysterious man waltz into her life with his amazing dance moves, strange ways and of course, his beloved coffee shop. Now Ava's thinking, he might be the one to change it all.
