At the ripe old age of 29, Rachel Bailey plans to get her life in order. Her love life is abysmal and her work as an engineer is in jeopardy. Since society does not recognize women as engineers, she places figureheads as project leaders while she does the work. Rachel heads to London to state her case to work openly as an engineer to her boss, a man she loves and hates at the same time. It is now time to open her heart to him. For years, Rachel has suppressed her feminine side in order to survive in a man's world. The only time Rachel allowed her heart to rule, the relationship ended in tragedy.

With his Irish heritage in the past, Ryan can conquer the business world. Ambition drives him to allay himself with people who shun his family. When his past walks back into his life, Ryan starts questioning his actions.
Rachel's reappearance in his life could not come at a worse time. Revisiting their mistakes can't resolve their differences or change the past. Rachel and Ryan must learn to compromise or risk losing everything.
