Whitney Lowe is too comfortable.

Nothing has changed from fifteen to twenty-five. Her boyfriend will never propose. The promotion she wants will never come. She doesn't know how she got here.

So when her brother breaks his leg and offers her his non-refundable plane ticket and the apartment he already rented in Italy for a month, she blows up her life - only to have Alden Miller, her brother's best friend, blow up her vacation.

Alden has always been a little out of reach for Whitney. He's two years older, a huge flirt, and lives life like a nomad.

So there really isn't anyone better than him to show her how to find herself again.All Rights Reserved
