I never expected to walk into a random bar in New York City and come face to face with the man who broke my heart. But there he sits. Todd Barkley. Hot shot doctor and New York’s biggest ladies’ man. Except to me, he’s the boy who introduced me to kisses that felt like fire, and touches that lingered long after the fact. The man who introduced me to love and lust and pleasure. He’s also the villain who stole my heart and then stamped a ‘return to sender’ sticker right over it. I thought I’d healed. I thought I’d put it behind me. But the moment I walk into that bar and spot Todd Barkley sitting there, looking like a GQ model, I know I haven’t. Broken hearts don’t mend that easily. Some don’t mend at all. The only question here is, do I give him the chance to try?

Abigale and Todd had a relationship, but he left her behind to go away to school. They never really have gotten over each other, though, just going through life and pretending. When Abigale sister, Anna, asks her to come visit, she's hesitant because that's where her ex went after medical school and she's worried about running into him. Well, she was right to worry, because they run into each other while out at a bar. They are still immensely attracted to each other, but Abigale is so angry with Todd over how he left. Todd is determined to show her, though, how good they could be together.
This second chance story isn't really enemy to lovers, they just had some things that they needed to sit and talk about. They also deserved the chance to see what kind of relationship they could form as adults. Regardless, I didn't dislike either of these characters and it was nice to see Todd working to show Abigale how much he wanted her.
