She dropped out of college to pay her bills. Now, her medical test results are back, and they say it's cervical cancer. As if that isn't bad enough, getting laid off from her job means Mackenzie can't afford to pay her bills, including the medical ones! She's convinced it's the worst day of her life. Not even meeting that Super Hot Guy from the coffee shop can make it better.
Or can it?
Ryan has been trying to get the nerve to talk to her for months. The pictures she draws while on her coffee break are amazing. It’s exactly the type of thing he’s been trying to find for his next tattoo. This time, the beautiful artist isn't lost in her work. Nope, she's lost in something else. Something that brings tears to those gorgeous eyes. It's the excuse he needs to finally get up the nerve to say hi.
She needs a shoulder and he's more than willing to give it - plus a job that lets her use her art. It's the break she needs after her life has been turned upside down. Mackenzie never expected to be working in a tattoo parlor, but it'll pay the bills, plus being around Ryan is pretty nice. Maybe too nice. His shy smiles make her stomach flip... or that could be the chemo. It all comes back to her cancer, it seems. The Super Hot Guy is her boss, but maybe this is as good as her life is going to get - because the cancer's getting worse. Every day is becoming a struggle.
Mackenzie wants to protect him, but Ryan isn't going to lose the girl. Not because he's her boss, not because he's too scared to make a move, and he's certainly not going to let some disease screw this up. She thinks the cancer is going to win, but he has other plans. He just needs one more day to prove it, but she may not give him that option.
**This book is a complete novel with NO CLIFFHANGERS which may contain some situations appropriate for mature readers.**
