When Emily inherits an old home in Toronto’s Little Italy, she sees it as the perfect location for her small business.

Unfortunately, Michael has secrets and wounds of his own, ones he has never trusted to another. Emily is determined to break down his walls, but can she trust her heart to a man who can’t trust himself?
