Austin and Wednesday have been friends for years. He values their friendship, though he’s horrible at showing it, and she loves him more deeply than she’s willing to admit. When he discovers she’s never celebrated a birthday, he plans a special night for just the two of them. Too bad he forgets to show up.

Wednesday has always been the Mistress of Denial. But this time she’s had it. Austin isn’t good for her, so she packs up and moves on. Now that Austin knows what he’s lost, he’s not willing to let her go. And it’s going to take every trick in his arsenal to prove his love and win back Wednesday.
