Darcy Wells has spent most of her time living in the worlds of her books. There, she can avoid the crushing reality of her mother's hoarding. But when their apartment complex gets a new property manager, Darcy's only home outside her books could be lost. At the same time, Asher Fleet, a former teen pilot with an unexpectedly shattered future, walks into the bookstore where Darcy works, and straight into her heart. For the first time in her life, Darcy can't seem to find the right words. Fairy tales are one thing, but real love makes her want to hide inside her carefully constructed ink-and-paper bomb shelter. But securing her own happily-ever-after will mean she'll need to stop hiding and start living her own truth, even if it's messy.
