Prologue
She's lost all hope of ever finding love. Yet it all changes when she meets. He wasn't the kind of man you smiled at in passing. He was the kind of person you remembered - even after he walked away.
Hope Vale was just looking to start over a new life as a single mother; she had no intention of dating. Her daughter was her reason for being. That is, until she meets Eli Thorne.
Eli Thorne has been burnt by love, he's sworn off it and chose to focus on building his empire. But he never expected to bump into Hope.
Will Hope and Eli heal from their past relationship traumas, or will they succumb to the wounds of loving another?
