Yet the cutthroat world of high finance, tainted by old-boy network sexism, leaves Veronica little time or desire for dating. Or so she claims. She'll get married when she turns 30. But is this truly her strategy or merely a coping mechanism for her teenage traumas?
Fate has other plans in store when Veronica crosses paths with Felix Rivas, a charismatic and cocksure game designer who lives life by the moment, defying rules and schedules. Hailing from East L.A., the free-spirited college dropout knows how to make a girl feel special. Seduced first by his attention and later by a sense of a business opportunity, Veronica makes a series of life-altering choices.
Just when everything appears to align perfectly, and her carefully laid plans are about to pay off, ghosts from the past bring old baggage and upset the hard-won status quo.
