***Holly***
Ever since my dad walked out eight years ago, my life has been Hell. The only reason I didn't skip town the moment I turned eighteen is my little sister, Willow. She needs me, and I won't leave her behind. Now my best friend has moved across the country to go to college and I've got no one at all - except Grant. Grant is the only man who has ever treated me like a person instead of trash, and he's always been there when I needed him. And now I'm afraid I'm falling in love with him. There's just one little problem.

Grant is my best friend's dad.

***Grant***
When my wife and son died in a plane crash nine years ago, Holly was the one who dragged my daughter and then me back to the world of the living. It kills me to see what she's had to endure since her father abandoned their family and her mother went to pieces, but Holly refuses to give up. She's the bravest person I've ever met. Yet sometime when I wasn't paying attention, the girl grew up into a woman. She trusts me. I'm supposed to keep her safe. But while I'm fighting it as hard as I can, it doesn't seem to matter.

I can't help wanting what I can never have.
