However, things don't turn out as Rachel hopes, and she finds herself accepting a teaching position in Sand Hill, a small western town. She arrives in Sand Hill penniless, scared, and alone.

He's resigned to raising his son on his own. When the new schoolteacher arrives, he finds out that she's in desperate need of his help. Is life offering him a second chance at love? Is it worth risking another broken heart to find out?
