'One stormy night, Erin swerves to avoid a dog in the road?only to end up crashing in the river. Struggling from the wreckage, she picks up the abandoned dog and wanders until she finds a clinic. The doctor, Dom, takes them both in; his warmth makes her chest so tight… The next day, out of nowhere, Erin offers to help Dom since he’s so busy. Perhaps by his side, she can find meaning that can counter the listlessness she feels.' (Publication summary)
