Zoe Lang's life isn't working out quite as she hoped. Estranged from her family and sick of her dreary existence, she spends her nights dreaming about her high school sweetheart, Edward. She knows that one day soon, he'll come back to sweep her off her feet, and together they'll build the life that he always promised her. She just has to be patient while he builds his career and saves his money until they can be together. Then one night, Zoe's apartment building catches fire, and her life changes forever when she meets smolderingly handsome firefighter, Cole Mitchell. When Zoe saves his life, their futures become inexorably entangled.
