Liz Rogers traded small town life for Manhattan's advertising world eight years ago. Her best friend Dale Corbins helped her make the leap and has remained her closest confidant ever since. They share an office and practically share an apartment. Now Liz finds herself ending one workplace romance just as another begins to surface. This new attraction has simmered since her first day in the city. The problem is her track record with love and her reluctance to trust again, particularly with someone born into wealth. Dale has loved Liz since they first met. He senses time slipping away and fears she will eventually fall for another man. When he discovers she has been sleeping with their boss, Dale decides he must act. Winning her heart proves more challenging than expected. Sweet words and romantic displays will not be enough. Dale's persistence runs deep, but even he questions whether this battle can be won.
