After leaving her old life behind, a guarded girl moves to a new city determined to keep her head down and start over. By day she’s anonymous, but at night she works behind the bar of a crowded downtown spot where no one asks too many questions. One weekend, a charming and persistent guy shows up and tries to flirt, but she shuts him down instantly—she’s built walls for a reason and doesn’t plan on letting anyone climb them. Still, he keeps coming back every Friday and Saturday, always taking the same seat, always ordering the same drink, and always trying to earn just a little more of her attention. What starts as annoyance slowly turns into curiosity as she realizes he’s not leaving—and for the first time since she moved, she wonders if maybe some people are worth letting past the guard she’s worked so hard to build.
