She hides her sadness behind cool professionalism...

Colleagues Jennifer and Daniel are working together on a multi-million-pound project. They’ve been pretending for months that they don’t like each other. As in, like like. 

Daniel has a light-hearted view of life but is serious and professional in the workplace. He doesn’t want the mess dating a colleague might create. Jennifer is quietly efficient. Having been cruelly manipulated and humiliated by the last man in her life, she keeps everyone at arms' length. She's wary about getting involved with a super-confident corporate type, which describes Daniel to a T. Her work mates just think she's a cold, corporate robot.

Yet, when they’re the last ones standing after a work social, Daniel can’t resist asking Jennifer on a date. Their first kiss turns their worlds upside down. Their first night together is incendiary. Jennifer starts to believe that Daniel could be part of her happily ever after.

Then Daniel’s career takes a turn that he can’t avoid. It will mean him working overseas for several months. Jennifer wonders if their relationship will survive the separation, especially as it's inexplicably heading towards the rocks. As though someone was steering things in that direction. And then, Jennifer has to deal with devastating news. Will Daniel get home in time to help her pick up the pieces?
