Synopsis

Nellie had been hired to care for someone she didn’t even know.

She hoped, prayed, that the person she’d be looking after would be an elderly woman with plenty of years left to live.

But the one waiting for her was a young and strikingly handsome man.

A retired soldier, Chester Coleman.

He was a complete mess.

Skipped meals, no social life, and barely even interacted with his own dog.

"I can’t go outside. People will look at me like I’m a freak."

He looked perfectly fine on the outside, but his self-esteem was in the gutter.

Worse, he was convinced he didn’t have long to live.

Panic attacks choked his chest, a trauma left behind by the war.

"If I scare you, you should quit now."

Quit? Just because he was intimidating?

No way she’d give up the highest-paying job in town.

"So, Mr. Coleman, how long exactly do you plan to stay in bed?"

To Nellie McKay, a professional caregiver, quitting wasn’t an option.

And yet… why did this man keep tugging at her heart?

Chester Coleman, who found it hard to believe he'd still be alive tomorrow, or even next week.

"I hope you get better, Mr. Coleman."

"You’d lose your job if I did."

"I know. But still."

Somewhere along the way, Nellie found herself quietly wishing for peace to find him.
