I enjoyed with read however I found that the story could have been fleshed out a little more. We meet mia and xavier a homeless shelter in NYC. Mia has been homeless for years since the age of 13 following the disappearance of her mother. Xavier is super rich and carrying out community service at the shelter. He is instantly attracted to mia more out of curiosity while mia is freaked out by him. We see how their relationship evolves over this cold NYC winter in search of blue skies...  Xavier is a hard to like character towards the start i could not warm to him or his behaviour for that reason I almost gave up however I am glad I carried on with this unlikely love story.
