Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for
the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she
graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she
feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s
life seems too good to be true.
Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive,
brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs
certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete
aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the
exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way
in the first place.
As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas
Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred
spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with
Ryle is threatened.
