Wren Hale and Chase Thorne were once deeply in love college sweethearts. They dated for four years, lived together for three, and were on the verge of getting engaged. However, five years ago, Wren suddenly broke up with Chase, claiming she had fallen for someone else, and left for Deep City to be with her childhood friend Rowan Cole, disappearing completely from Chase's life. Devastated by the breakup, Chase fell into deep distress. Five years later, the two unexpectedly reunite at the engagement party of Wren's best friend Mia Bennett and Chase's good friend Asher Reed. Chase appears cold on the surface, but still cannot let go of his feelings for Wren, and loses control to kiss Wren when she speaks coldly to him. The two hurt each other and agree never to meet again, but are forced to interact repeatedly due to their shared circle of friends.
