She's a widow, determined to hide her struggle and her heart from the world. He's her husband's best friend, who made a promise to take care of the family he left behind.
When Hailey's husband died, she vowed that she alone would provide for her children. Her heart couldn't suffer any more hurt and her children needed her more than ever. Even still, she aches for someone to lean on and share life.
Landon swore to his best friend that he would watch over his wife and kids, but how does a man even begin to take on a promise that big? A fun-loving bachelor could never fit into family life, no matter how much he might enjoy it.
In a moment of desperation, Hailey reaches out to Landon for help, but when he comes to her aid, he realizes he's not been keeping his promise. After he gets a taste of Hailey's struggles as a single parent, he knows he can't let them live this way.
The more Landon is around, the more Hailey longs to open up to him and as their feelings grow, so does Landon's guilt. Soon they discover that unspoken love is almost as heavy a burden as promises unkept.
Can Landon and Hailey let go of their fears and embrace their chance at happiness?
