The help-wanted ad on the bulletin board at Ashland’s college was simple enough: mother seeks live-in maid for son. But it turns out Breaker James is a mess in more ways than one. He’s confined to a prison of his own making, crippled by his fear of people and any social interaction whatsoever. Every vibe he’s giving off is begging Ashland to stay away, yet she finds herself strangely drawn to him. Can she coax him out of his darkness and help him overcome the deep trauma of his past to reclaim a normal life?

EXCERPT
He looked around the room once and then pegged me in a dead stare. “Did he tell you how beautiful you look tonight? Did he tell you that this red—” he worked a piece of my shirt between his thumb and his finger, “—really sets off your eyes? Did he hold your hand? Did he bring you to the door and make you wish you were the kind of girl that would invite him in?”
I swallowed and looked back at his fingers still on my shirt. “No.”
“No to which question?” He moved his hand to my hair and twirled a strand around his finger.
“No to all of them.” I was almost ashamed of my answer. It wasn’t my fault, but I didn’t like admitting it.
“What a shame.”

She writes about the ordinary people who fall extraordinarily in wild, true love.
