It had been 615 days, two hours, and 16 minutes since he last saw her. In less than 72 hours, he'd bought a dance studio. In ten minutes, she cursed him out and ditched him in said studio. Then, three minutes later, he found her list—and in one second, he changed the trajectory of her life with a single sentence. Sienna Jones didn't have a plan—she had a list.
