For a moment, he remembered rain.

A ruined tuxedo.

An empty stomach.

And a woman with almost nothing who had given him everything she could.

“Because someone once did the same for me.”

The stranger opened the bag.

Steam rose into the cold Boston night.

Adrian walked back toward Emily.

Years earlier, he had fled a billion-dollar wedding believing he was running away from the life he didn't want.

He had been wrong.

He had been running toward the first person who would meet him without his money, his name, or his power.

A woman who saw a hungry stranger beneath an awning and gave him her last hot meal.

She had thought she was giving away dinner.

Instead, she had given Adrian Mercer something his billions had never been able to buy.

A chance to discover who he was when there was nothing left to impress anyone with.

And, eventually, a reason to become that man even after he had everything back.

This time, when Adrian stepped through the doorway, he didn't look behind him.

There was nowhere else he wanted to go.
