I never believed in fate. That was something for the dreamers, the romantics, not someone as practical and pragmatic as I. Fate had nothing to do with me walking in on my soon-to-be husband in a compromising position with his secretary. Fate had nothing to do with me hopping on a plane to Rome, effectively standing up my former fiance on our wedding day. And fate certainly had nothing to do with the handsome stranger sitting across the aisle from me, one who would open my mind and heart to things I never thought possible.

I came to Hawaii to get answers about my sister’s death. But that all changes when I meet her. Beautiful. Charming. Haunted. And the last thing I need in my life. But that doesn’t mean I can stay away. So we make an agreement. One week. No expectations. No falling in love. It’s the perfect plan.

Olivia Adler is a woman with a troubled past. After losing her parents at the age of six and being raised by an uncle who she lost years later, she refuses to get attached to anyone, including friends. For the past decade, she has been able to remain unattached to any man, too worried about losing someone to get too close - that is, until Alexander Burnham walks into her life one night and changes everything. But Alexander has issues of his own, and he's keeping a secret that could turn Olivia's world upside down.

One week. No names. No expectations. That was our agreement. We were supposed to walk away after our time in Hawaii was over. No matter what.

Haunted by her past, Olivia Adler flees Boston for a beach in Florida, leaving everyone behind.

After being away from Alexander for a month, his voice constantly ringing in her head, reminding her that her inability to confront her demons will not only destroy her but also him, can she really be expected to want to feel again when it brings nothing but pain?

Finally able to face her fears of abandonment, Olivia Adler begins to prepare for the next phase of her life. But Alexander Burnham is still holding on to all the secrets about Olivia's past, trying to protect her. As days go by, Olivia is slowly starting to remember her past, and Alexander realizes that it's only a matter of time before she puts all the pieces together and figures out who he is… and who she is.

One week. No names. No expectations. That was our agreement. We were supposed to walk away once our time in Hawaii was over. No matter what. But that was before I finally decided to take a risk.

He found me in the dark when I thought all hope was lost. He swore he loved me when I didn't think anyone ever would. He vowed to keep the shadows haunting me at bay when I felt like I was drowning in my past. But in doing so, he also kept the truth from me.  

Once upon a time, a mysterious, passionate man opened my eyes to things I'd been blind to, my heart to feelings I never thought imaginable, my mind to endless possibilities. Once upon a time, I experienced something I didn't think existed in real life. Once upon a time, I learned how to fly. Little did I know it was with broken wings. Ones that were irreparable after a lifetime of being caged.   

My life has always been a series of carefully constructed roads. Always the passenger, never the driver. Except with Dante. He makes me feel like a princess, a goddess, a queen.... His queen.

Until I learn the truth of who Lincoln Moore actually is.

But also love, as cruel and beautiful as it's always been between them. When outside circumstances threaten Drew's family, will Brooklyn finally put aside the grief of her past to offer him the support, and perhaps love, he needs? Or was their fate sealed all those years ago when Drew had no choice but to betray her?

Brooklyn Tanner and Andrew Brinks have a long history...one she wants nothing more than to forget.
