"It's a good fear, Sam. I'd miss it if it wasn't there..." Musical prodigy Eddie Dean gets everything she wants.

Once the financial facade comes tumbling down, Eddie's broke and her boyfriend couldn't care less. The doorstep of Jimmy's Café is the last place she expects to wash up. Scrubbing dishes and serving fried breakfasts to pay her rent is as hellish as she imagined, and her new life is made worse by the disdain of her boss's sneering grandson. Sam Nowak is arrogant, rude, and gorgeous, and if Eddie never sees him again, it will be too soon. Shame she can't stop thinking about him. Dreaming about him. Craving him. And then there's his best friend Dylan. Dylan is as light as Sam is dark, and Eddie wants him too. She can have him too-according to Sam-but when Sam reveals a vulnerability that could cost him his life, it's time for Eddie to face the music. Does she still need to get everything she wants, or should she choose what matters?
