One is undervalued and one is overlooked. Can these two strangers, drawn together by an undeniable force, be exactly what the other needs to find love?

Two strangers meet by chance in a New York City bar and are instantly enthralled with one another. The attraction between them cannot be contained; yet despite spending a memorable night together, they part still as strangers the next morning.

Love had burned Lana twice before in her life: once by a man who should never have wanted to hurt her, and once by a boy she never should have let hurt her. Although she was a gifted student who became a talented doctor, Lana has never found her place in the world, living a solitary and somewhat lonely life.

Liam had never been bothered by love before, preferring to keep his relationships at a two-month minimum in order to avoid any unnecessary drama. Always the party boy, even to his family, he has struggled to be taken seriously since childhood. Even when he is surrounded by people, though, Liam has an emptiness he can't seem to fill.

When Lana and Liam meet as strangers, they have no idea that ties that already tether them to each other. Will they be strong enough to bring them back together? And if so, can these same ties hold the couple together, as fate tries to tear them apart?
