Aidan Vale

Aidan Vale doesn't believe in fate or serendipity. He believes in logic, patterns, and choices. When his sister pressures him to "live a little" by going on a blind date at a luxury island resort, he reluctantly agrees - not for romance, but to finally try something irrational, something his late mother had always urged him to experience. What happens when this emotionally reserved, analytical young man meets someone who challenges everything he thinks he knows?
