The death of Alice Jane Lynch’s father forces her to return to Chicago, a city she has not set foot in for ten years. There, she encounters a family business on the verge of bankruptcy, a mountain of debt, and secrets she never imagined. But the greatest challenge is not financial: it is Tyler Gallagher, a cynical and attractive firefighter she fled from in the past and who now seems determined to stir everything up. Between the pressure of saving the business and the difficulty of staying away from him, Alice will have to decide if she is ready to face the lights of the city and the shadows of her own heart.
