Enamored as much by his charm as she was by his professional skill, Sakura could stop herself from immediately falling in love.

Now, at twenty-two, Sakura is a rookie nurse who has just taken her first position at a local hospital.

Working hard at her new job, Sakura is surprised when she learns that the doctor she fell in love with all those years ago is working in the same hospital.
