Best described as a “real modern-day fairy tale” with the unexpected twists readers will enjoy keeping in suspense as their hearts beat together in the most extraordinary way.
Cal Carter quietly has a goal: get her heart surgeon brother and his wife adopt three children who have lost their parents due to a fire – which then allows Cal to be able to inherit their parent’s large-inheritance-paying multi-generational granite nightclub. The only problem is that Cal has been accepting everything the Carter family has just because they make life convenient. Living by the motto of "Always look on the bright side," Cal follows suit to her old college buddy from days gone by, Sterling Lockwood. With a thriving high-profile career, and long-time childhood friendship, Cal gladly accepts Sterling's proposal - she just doesn’t ask him what is really expected of her: to play a part as mr and Mrs Name Only. So she runs off and proposes to him and finally gets to take a family that so desperately needs it. Matched in every way but one: Cal is still convinced Sterling is just doing so because he knows her brother and how happy it would make him. After all, she is not thrilled about another pair of eternally five-year-old lawsuits that would ensue when their circumstances changed (for whatever reason). It's nothing personal against the Carters either, definitely not - Cal just happens to favor a certain extroverted hockey genius marketing himself as the Internet's icon Quinn Rayne because her sister happens to have a huge fan-club devoted to watching his shows. Cal finds Quinn attractive, probably, but she wouldn’t trade close enough to call her a friend for him, despite no less than fifteen mutual friends whom Cal and Sterling hastily set aside when Sterling need not put on airs and sweetly offered to hit the sheets. And now Sterling-with-a-v is here for the next few months as Sterling, fiance, and soon-to-be Mrs Lockwood, as one of the only bona fide strangers in Cal's extended family willing to take on Caree's children into their family with open arms. Cal wouldn't hinder her friend's happiness for any argument in the world. Do n't mind Sterling's constant updates over FB about all the various old-school traditions and carefully laid rules that surround Northern New England weddings until Cal can shake away the bitterness that wears down her bones as effectively as hot summer days. No rational argument will quell Cal's uncertainty about Sterling's intentions. He's a workaholic, palm reader, wheelchair$~&K%", more-than-volunteer-church-membership-lender, lover of almost every woman he comes across including her best friend who heads his market analysis department, quite possibly, an international art-world level schemer-in-waiting while Cal is a loyal, hard-workingchronicnerdwho happens to be beyond compare relatable in allieness towards status, managing money, fighting expensive medical bills a catch for "mean, dirty financial criminals" who sometimes would just like to sit out in faded jeans and a t-shirt and pretend like it doesn't matter and dawdle through endless playlist of embarrassing band-specific theatrics for love judges. Despair swirls within Cal the way a tornado on an unlucky summer day would fill residential neighborhoods with destruction, except Sterling being present replaces feelings of feeling lost among the pathos of unraveling life with slowly subsiding camaraderie building bridges between the two could always subside the tug-of-war factors and logical biases that those involved would bring to tensions and stories of the humans involved in this marriage of convenience. Until once again after the honeymoon and going to paychild support payments to the Carter's bank, Cal realizes Sterling isn't all that he seemed overnight and perhaps not all of the billionaire Savant doesn't miss the lighthearted wild man Quinn might have been able to encourage a few too many years of blithe trust in him - it beats grief beating away that spot on her nowhere to go but home. Suddenly Gail Tuteur, his normally stiff yet approachable assistant found herself becoming more relaxed and even curious where Mr Rayne disappeared to without notice for several days straight leading Sterling to quickly become disturbing findings on Quinns behavior until all Helmet football training instincts kicked in; someone had to Web Hoisted his lazy flops off his trademark wedge and listen intently to the secondhand gossip piecing together online pieces of evidence and fix it back in place the puzzle - and Cal.
