Nyla Jacobson, a shy seamstress with dyslexia, lives with her mean-spirited mother while wishing her father had stayed in her life to protect her from the cruel treatment.
Dr. Quinton (Quinn) Wayland, a genius who is a cardiothoracic surgeon and known as a womanizer, uses women to anesthetize the pain of seeing his older brother burned alive.
Two hearts filled with hurt ironically meet on a hospital elevator.
Nyla squeezes between the closing steel doors to get away from a weird guy who accosted her in the parking lot.
Unsure why he feels the need to protect her, Quinn forces the belligerent guy off the elevator into the lobby. Then he looks into Nyla's enchanting hazel eyes and instantly falls in love.
Tongue-tied, he can't even ask for her name. Embarrassed by his own muted behavior, he gets off on his patient's floor, never expecting to see the hypnotizing woman again.
Later, he finds her in the hospital cafeteria sitting in a booth with his sister-in-law.
With her cell number secure in his phone, their journey together begins.
Yet, can they fight for love, even while dealing with their own emotional baggage?
