Emily Molson, PA to Derek Haven, CEO of Haven Group has nightmares every night, that prevent her from getting a good night's rest. Derek Haven, on the other hand is lucky to get any sleep at all. The two of them work close together but have no idea that they have the same problem. Then one night they end up in bed together and a miracle happens.
Derek's mother, and Emily's mom making pinky promises to one another was so far out of reality that Emily actually had to pinch herself. Just to see if she was imagining things or not. When they had been making their way up the stairs. She had not imagined things going the way that they were currently progressing at all.
Their mothers knew one another.
That was huge.
Derek's mother had said that they did not know each other's last names before their current meeting. But the name Cassandra was not a common one. Emily would have remembered if her mom had ever mentioned it. Even if she'd said Cassie, at least once over the years.
