    Summary

    On a random, depressing day, in a bar the brokenhearted professor Rio Vidal knows all too well, she sees a woman—or, as she describes her in her head, an ethereal being, the painter Agatha Harkness.

    A woman whose mere presence sobered Rio up, then made her drunk again for an entirely different reason.

    Can Rio—a woman who doubts her self-worth, who believes she's undeserving of love—handle holding the door open for someone as delicate and willing as Agatha?
    And if she does, can she handle letting her in afterward?
