Those words were said to him by a stranger in the airport. And from that moment on, he’s only had eyes for her.

Too bad they met when she was taking off for three months to parts unknown. Otherwise, Keene Day—yes, that was really his godforsaken name—would’ve tried a little harder to get her info.

Lucky for him, fate takes pity on him.

They meet over and over again in the airport. First in the security line, then at the terminal where they’re both on the same plane. Finally, after a few delayed flights, an emergency landing, and a six-hour road trip, he finally pulls his head out of his ass long enough to get her info.

And over the next few weeks, they talk over the phone and get to know each other.

But fate is funny.

Just as easily as it can bring you to a person, it can tear them away, too.

And Ande Carter’s life is about to take a turn for the worse.

But Keene is there for it all. The good, bad, and ugly.

Whether she wants him there or not.
