Miles Ashton doesn't have a clue what's hit him. Survivor of the collapse of the World Trade Center and the loss of his fiancée and all his co-workers, he wasn't ready for anything to hit him. Ever again. But then he meets JoJo Hammond, would-be novelist and unenthusiastic interior decorator, on the streets of Chinatown, and nothing is the same.

The old woman in the Chinatown alleyway claims the thing she gave JoJo is a love charm, guaranteed to bring the "right" people together. But Miles isn't so sure. And neither is JoJo.

Because doesn't everyone know there's no such thing as a love charm?
