Gabriel Gless and Helen Crouch's first meeting nearly ends in tragedy because of Helen's wayward son. Despite all they have in common-the loss of their beloved spouses, the experience of raising their children alone, their rock-solid faith-it seems their chances of finding new love together are gone before they've even had an opportunity to get to know each other.
Meanwhile, Helen's good friend, Annie Plank, is still reeling from the death of her husband when Gabriel's son Isaac walks into her bakery and into her life. His heart is still sore from a lost love, and they too struggle to find a place where their paths can join.
