Graham is a successful attorney with a reputation for being cold and unfeeling, while Miki is a struggling waitress with a heart of gold. When the two meet by chance, they are immediately drawn to each other and embark on a journey of discovery, love, and redemption.

Miki’s struggles with her family, work, and relationships are also handled with sensitivity and depth. However, the novel is not without its flaws.
Some of the secondary characters are underdeveloped, and their motivations and actions are not always clear. The narrative can also feel predictable at times, with some of the plot twists being telegraphed well in advance.
