Callie moved to LA to hide from her ex and start her life over with her son Tommy. She is out on a hike and comes across a man who was injured. She takes him back to the small cabin that she has rented for the weekend and there is a thunderstorm. She is deathly afraid of thunder and lightning and the man helps to calm her. He tells her who he is: Declan Reed. He's a famous actor from Australia, but Callie is not really impressed by that, which makes Declan all the more interested. They spend the night together but agree that it's a one-time thing. Except that once it's over, the two of them can stop thinking about each other. Soon they are in a relationship and are building something real. When Callie's ex comes to LA, will they be able to weather the storm? And when Declan is injured in an earthquake, will the relationship that they worked so hard to save be finished?

I really liked these characters, especially Callie who advocated for herself to get what she needed with Declan. And he let her have control when she needed it to learn what she wanted/needed for herself. He made her feel safe by letting her do that.
