Book Rating: 

Aiden plays for the Grizzlies Hockey Team. He is now 25, he isn't sure if his family is celebrating his birthday, if so it'll be the first one they've never celebrated in person with.  When he hears a knock on his door at 2am he isn't sure if it's the drunk neighbors next door, or someone else. The knocking doesn't stop and Aiden opens it up to find Luna standing outside his door. He is taken back, he hasn't seen Luna in a few years now. Luna burst inside his room, Aiden thinks a ray of sunshine just burst in at 2am, which no one should be that cheery!

Luna was raised mostly by her grandmother. They had been living with her father and brother after her grandmother's health took a bad turn. Now that she's gone, Luna isn't sure what to do. She moved back into their shared house, but, she doesn't want to replace broken items, put away her thinks, box up her grandmother's things. She is just lost.  Her father kicked her out of the family company she was working with. Now she just doesn't know where to turn or what to do. At the reading of the Will the lawyer handed her a letter which stated she could get her grandmother's shares of the company if she was married within a year of her passing. Now that it's been 8 months, she thinks of Aiden and the 'contract' they made when they were younger. She wants to cash in on their deal to marry by the time they turn 25. But will Aiden? Will he still be open to being with her? 

When she left Aiden when they were teenagers, she thought she was breaking up with him for a good reason, to let him to be the hockey golden boy she knew he would become. Now that Aiden is on the pro hockey team has he really made his dreams come true? Does his dream also include Luna?
