Elsie. Track down an Author who suddenly went MIA and make a good story out of It. This was supposed to be my big way of getting a permanent position at the Barbara’s Editorial Board. In some ways, it was. Until it wasn’t. Hunter Graham isn’t who I envisioned him to be. He’s bitter and he resents me. When my car breaks down and a blizzard hits, I’m stranded. I have no choice. I have to stay with him. My plan is simple. Stay long enough for the snow to thaw and be on my way. But day after day, I find myself falling for him, even when I shouldn’t. He annoys me and gets on my nerves.I know he hates me. He doesn’t want me around him. I do want him to want me though. But we can’t always have what we want, can we? Hunter My life wasn’t so bad, till she came along. The nosy reporter. I shouldn’t have her around me, yet here she is. Believe me, I’ve had my fair share of bad experiences with people. I’ve learnt to trust no one. Especially her. Yet, no matter what I do, I find myself getting drawn to her, craving her. Despite my hostility towards her, she invades my thoughts, a haunting presence I can’t escape. I hate her. I really do. So why do I see her when I close my eyes and why do I feel her when she’s not even close?. I can’t possibly love her. I can’t possibly love anyone else. Not after what I’ve been through. Or can I? One thing is certain. Regardless of how I feel, we’re stuck with each other.

I can hear the sound of hurried footsteps approaching, and then, suddenly, there’s a pair of strong arms on me, gently turning me over.“Are you okay? Can you hear me?" A deep, rumbling voice asks. I blink up at the sky and instead, I stare at the face of Hunter Graham. For a moment, I’m too stunned to speak, still reeling from my fall and the shock of actually finding him here. Up close, he’s even more breathtaking than the carefully curated photos I had found online and pored over. His chiseled features, his piercing hazel eyes, the way his tousled auburn hair falls across his forehead, it’s all so much more captivating in person. “Are you alright?" He asks again. I open my mouth to respond, but no words come out. I’m too overwhelmed, too star-struck to form a coherent sentence. All I can do is nod weakly. “Hey, are you sure you’re alright?" he asks, his brows furrowed with concern. “I’m fine," I
I shove the last of my clothes into my battered old duffel bag and zip it up with a sigh. This is happening- I’m going to track down Hunter Graham, the famous author who vanished without a trace some months ago. My roommate and also my only friend, Jenna, leans against the doorframe of my small bedroom, arms crossed as she watches me pack with a skeptical look. “I still think this is a crazy idea, you know," she says. I roll my eyes as I toss my toiletries into another bag. “You’ve said that about fifty times already, Jenna. But I have to do this." She pushes off the doorframe and comes further into the room. “So you’re still going through with this crazy plan?" I give her a small smile. “When have you known me to back down from a story?" She walks over and perched at the edge of my unmade bed.“I don’t get why you’re doing this, honestly."I sight. “I’m sure we’ve been over this before Jess. I have to impress my boss.
