When Charley Richards left the UK to work in Chicago for a year, she left a piece of her heart with Brayden McKie.

After months of almost meeting, their only date was on Christmas Eve. Now, with her mind full of the wonderful memories they made, she can't help but wish the time away until she can go home to him.

However, when Brayden drops a bombshell just weeks before Charley's return, her world is rocked, and her plans make a swift and unexpected change.

Is the universe playing a cruel trick on her by offering her a man she can never really have? Or will fate work in her favour and finally give her the one thing she wants more than anything in the world?
