Still, the more time she spends with the guy, the more she finds herself warming up to his unexpected charms.   Even though Brett comes off like a boy scout, Ellie has sparked something he wants badly enough to get him to rethink his past mistakes. But when her ex shows up, Brett makes it his mission to keep Ellie safe in the here and now.
