What if you found the love of your life—at exactly the wrong time?

Beverly Park believes in soul mates. Fated love stories. One right person for everyone. It’s her family business, after all – for centuries, the women in her family have had the ability to see into clients’ past lives and find their one true love. One and Only Matchmaking has a 100% guarantee of true love . . . for everyone but Beverly.

She knows that she has a fated, and that his name is Daniel. And she knows when she meets him, everything will fall into place. The trouble is—he’s nowhere to be seen. And so, on the eve of her 40th birthday, Beverly decides to do something for herself. She impulsively has a fling with 28-year-old Ellis, who’s cute and not fated to be the love of her life. But Beverly is surprised by their connection, and how much she likes him—up to the moment he introduces her to his boss. . . Daniel.

Now Beverly will have to choose between a fated love story and one where nothing is promised. As she battles between head and heart, fate and chance, Beverly will have to decide if she’ll follow her fate…or make her own.
