After her sister married Forest Reeves's brother, Legacy kidnapped Hope Chan, and Forest volunteered to bring her home.
He meant to find her, extract her, and return her to Mercy as family duty, but Hope is already watching, planning, and fighting for an exit of her own.
Nothing about his humor or looks had prepared her for a man falling out of the sky at thirty thousand feet.
Forest gives her choices after other people took them, makes her laugh when she had forgotten how, and never treats her as if she is broken.
Once she looks at him with trust, the job stops being simple, and he stays after the danger is gone.
Legacy came after Hope over her sister; Forest is the one she wants on her own terms.
