Angie Snyder loves her son Troy. To escape her past and its negative influences she moves to Spencer Island, a place that is so welcoming she can't imagine living anywhere else. But when Troy gets into trouble the only person available to help him is an ex-cop-turned-counsellor, Ted Langley. The kind of man she finds exciting and interesting. The kind of man who wouldn't be interested in her if he knew about her past.
Ted Langley was injured in the line of duty, resulting in him having to find a new role in life. Not only a new professional role, but a whole new life after his marriage ends.
Angie has a secret she cannot tell. Ted has difficulty believing in love.
Yet, they are kindred spirits. And the love forming between them is undeniable.
Yet, can they learn to trust again, expose their past, and open their hearts to each other?
