Annie Duncan is completely unaware of the sacrifices Noah Flynn made to preserve their friendship. He's ready to tell her. Annie along with her husband, Jesse, were best friends with Noah as far back as any of them could remember. Shortly after Jesse and Annie married, Noah left Ashbrook and explored the world as a traveling doctor. When Jesse dies in an unexpected accident, Noah returns to fill the gap left by his absence. Jesse and Annie's son, J.R., accepts Noah as a surrogate father. Annie isn't sure that small town Montana or a single mother who spent her whole life in the house where she grew up is enough to satisfy the heart of a man who has seen and done it all. When J.R. and Noah team up, Annie learns about friendship, second chances, and what happens when a small town sees a romance in the makings.
