When Jared Briscoe arrives home on leave from the military, the last thing he expects to hear is that he'll soon be a father. But his first love Brandi Norcross is very pregnant, and there's no doubt he's the dad. Brandi isn’t sure what to do about Jared’s return to town. She knows it’s only temporary. He’ll ship out to the military base in a matter of days. Besides, she has problems of her own. Her business, Brandi’s Diner, is struggling to remain profitable with increasing competition from the franchises moving into town. Jared knows he has to leave soon, but his goal is to help Brandi save the restaurant she loves so much. But as he spends time with her, he finds himself falling in love with her again. Maybe he never stopped loving her.
