Kenzie Stantons constantly matchmaking mother wont take a hint. At twenty-eight years old, shed learned rainbows and fairy-tales dont exist. She swears if she ever gets back on her feet, and out of the hot water her ex landed her in, shell embrace a new life thats relationship-free. When a tall, handsome man with sexy eyes and a smoking-hot body shows up in her familys store, she has no trouble ignoring him. Until his kindness and genuine nature truly test her resolve.

The tabloids describe Ty Bateman as a cynical, take-charge, run-over-them-before-they-run-over-you kind of guy. In truth, the life of extreme celebrity has turned him into a tainted, jaded manbeing virtually imprisoned behind the windowless walls of his home to avoid the clicking cameras of invasive paparazzi and the overzealous media will tend to do that to a person. When the time comes for his yearly weekend with his childhood friends, he decides to buy a secluded mountain cabin and take an extended vacation from his overwhelming reality. Rejuvenating his soul and making decisions about his future are his top priorities until he spots a blonde beauty in short-shorts carrying groceries out of the only store in town.

Kenzie and Ty are both hiding out in the mountainsbut for very different reason. Reality can only wait so long before it comes knocking on their doors. Even if Ty can break through Kenzies barriers, hes not entirely sure his hurt beauty can withstand the mental brutality of his world. For these two damaged souls, is the possibility of failure too much to try for a life of more than acting happy?
