Such a rollercoaster of emotions. While the present day story is light and funny, Chase’s story flashes back to 7 years ago..and it is tragic.

Reese starts out on a boring date, and as she tries to get ahold of a friend..to give her an emergency, a stranger Chase overhears her. After some banter, they go back to their tables. But Chase and his date join Reese and her date and he acts like he and Reese have been friends since middle school. They both go back and forth with the elaborate stories until their night comes to an end. Both of them hated to see the night come to an end but what were they to do? But that was just the start of their story. Reese ends up working for Chase’s company and loves her job. It is clear they both are intrigued with each other but Reese doesn’t want to mix business with pleasure. That doesn’t stop Chase from trying though. He goes out of his way in an attempt to get Reese to go out with him. So much banter, so much chemistry. Things are good between them until his past catches up to his present. The issues that plagued him 7 years ago are back, and he didn’t handle it well the first time around.

Like I said, rollercoaster. So much of this story is funny and entertaining and at the same time, your heart will hurt for Chase. Love the banter and chemistry between Reese and Chase and love their crazy random stories they come up with. Both of them have stories of their pasts that have shaped them into who they are today. With each other, they grow, they love, and learn how to move forward. Great story.
