Fairy tales are meant to offer hope. People who are truly good eventually get their happy ending and the evil people of the world get theirs as well.
That's what Eve Christiansen tells herself every day when she wakes up. The problem is she doesn't believe in fairy tales anymore. She gave up on them long before she knew just how cruel the world could be. All she wants is to be happy and, despite her best efforts to be a decent human being, the universe refuses to grant her the one thing she yearns for the most. A lifetime of disappointments and hardships forces her to wear a mask of normalcy to hide what a broken person she really is. She finds herself grasping at the tattered threads of life just to make it through each day.
When she meets Jacob Hamilton, she knows he isn't the man of her dreams. He isn't any different from every other man passing through her life. He is just another suit and tie reminding her she doesn't fit in the world she is surrounded by.
She feels the fragile threads of life breaking every day; each one painfully slipping through her tired hands.
