When opposites attract, will their differences ruin their chance at true love? Anna is independent to the core.

Ruth is all brains and business, and she imagines a partner who’s exactly the same. But when the mistakes of the professor’s past catch up to her, the man who lends a hand studies engines, not books. Despite the mechanic being the opposite of intellectual, Ruth wonders if her idea of the perfect soul mate was completely off. Will Anna and Ruth find love in their mismatched relationships or will those very differences tear them apart? is the second book in the Meant to Be Together series of contemporary romances.
