A black eye. A broken-down car. A chance encounter that changes everything.
Out-of-work violinist Erica Timberly leaves her abusive boyfriend and flees the big city. After her car stalls in the middle of the night, she reluctantly accepts help from a passing stranger, only to realize he's Dylan Haynes, the former drummer of her favorite indie rock band. Maybe, just maybe, her run of bad luck is finally turning around.
Dylan knows Erica is in trouble, and her black eye is only the first clue. Having traded the chaos of stardom for the calm of teaching music, he's given up his playboy ways and wants something real. Sparks fly with Erica, but she's one step away from hitting the road.
Will Erica listen to the music in her heart and trust Dylan, or will her past always threaten her future?
