After an abusive marriage and an ugly divorce, Toni needs to rebuild her self-confidence and start a new life. In her Hometown again, she confronts people she'd hurt when she'd left. She'd hung onto the idea of buying a long-abandoned old house and remodeling it to help her recover. But a man from her past has recently purchased it for his business. That's her emotional breaking point and she does something reckless. Now she must pay the legal consequences of her foolish actions...by working for him. Chad's job as a lawyer working to protect the rights of the abused elderly consumes his time and energy. It cost him his marriage. Now he works harder, guards his bruised heart. Then someone he'd held secret feelings for comes back to town. She upsets his world, starting with minor destruction of his business property and causing him minor injury. He shouldn't become involved in helping this troubled woman, yet he can't keep from doing so. Two heart-damaged people have trouble trusting love again.
