If you survive... When Ellis Winston is left for dead, he knows his life will never be the same. The public face of the largest fashion house in North America, Ellis has fallen out of favor with the powers that be, the advertising agents who are seeking a much younger man to take Ellis’ place in the spotlight. Ellis never dreamed he’d be washed up at the tender age of twenty six. Can you rebuild... Jake Rowe has given up on trying to force relationships. While he longs for someone to share his life with, Jake’s content growing his private therapy practice and helping his dad keep the family recycling business in the black. Or is it worth the risk… When a chance trip to the wrong side of town on a frigid Chicago morning brings Ellis and Jake together, there’s a moment when Jake actually believes fate might just be on his side. But two white lies, one favor and an empty hospital bed later, Jake realizes he’s the one that’s been left this time. And honestly, that really sucks because no-one deserves to be thrown away.
