But after moving into one of her father’s apartments to get back on her feet, her plan goes out the window after a run in with her neighbor, hockey heartthrob Trevor Adams. She was supposed to be starting fresh after leaving her ex, taking time to figure out what her heart wanted and what would be best for her daughter.

Slowly their casual hellos and friendly smiles turn into talking for hours and stolen kisses. But can they stay just friends? Or will Trevor crash through the walls Ellie has worked hard to hold up. less
