Aiden's past is always on his mind and it keeps him from living wholly in the present. When he finds himself falling for Rhea, a recently fired ex-cop, he pushes away, because it's the only way he knows how to protect the people he loves.
When Rhea arrests a man with the right friends her only reward is a pink-slip and a goodbye. When she meets Aiden while exploring other job options she can't help but be attracted to the athletic, yet slightly nerdy, drummer, even though he does everything he can to convince her otherwise.
Grumpy grandpas, inappropriate grannies, quirky friends, rock stars, and pen!s graffiti abound in this journey to love for two very different people from remarkably similar backgrounds. It stands alone, and has a happily ever after to get your heart beating double time.
