My name is Gertie Meyer. At thirty-eight, I'm perfectly happy being single and living the life of a hermit. Social interaction? Loathe it with a thousand passions. It ranks number one on my list of things to avoid at all costs. The walls around my heart give me the quiet protection I desire until they're shattered one day in a mere blink of an eye. When a man crashes into my life and tries to make me feel again, I realize that I can't fight change, it's inevitable. I don't like it, but what choice do I have when he's helping me accomplish my life's dream? And why is he stirring something inside I'd kept locked in the dark depths of my soul?My name is Zeke Bradley. If I was alive, I'd be a forty-year-old man. But no, ever since my life ended eight years ago, my soul has been trapped in limbo. Now I'm the guardian of a woman who is physically alive, but emotionally dead. Helping her become the woman she is meant to be, I might just find the answers to help me move on from my own self-imposed hell. Finally, I've discovered a purpose. It shouldn't be too hard, except Gertie has serious issues with change. Leaving me with quite the task to accomplish, having us both face ourselves.
