Even disguised as a boy, Cora Baker still struggles to earn enough money to survive on her own. It’s hard enough that she has to deal with unruly drunks at work, but now she’s been evicted from her apartment. Still grieving the loss of her family, she yearns for a ray of hope during this dark time in her life.
Jesse King lives alone, and he likes it that way. He doesn’t want anyone to depend on him—he fears he’s too much like his bastard of a father. When he finds a homeless lad sleeping in the hallway, he doesn’t want to have anything to do with him. Then he remembers the family who helped him and his mother when he was a boy and reluctantly offers the lad a place to stay.
When Jesse discovers Cora’s true identity, he’s conflicted. Despite their mutual attraction and his need to protect her, he resists the desire to deepen their relationship. Will Jesse face his fears or lose the woman who has filled his heart and his home?
