    About this ebook

    Stuck waiting for a bus, Megan cannot make it to her blind date on time. Her messy life leaves no time for romance.

    She struggles to do her work and live. Seattle, inundated with flooding, seems like a surrealistic dream.

    Megan sees a stranger who makes her blood pulse and thoughts go fuzzy just looking at him. Why does he hold power over her?

    Can he be the one she searches for?
