Bess Howard loves her small town, her large extended family, and the job she has with the family landscaping business. However, she has a missing element in her life, a family of her own. When Caleb Ford, her younger brother's friend, returns to Thorn Grove to help his mentor, she's startled at the attraction that blooms between them, both physical and a deep, emotional connection neither counted on. As they get to know each other, Caleb and Bess begin to wonder, can they find the thing neither of them think is possible for them? A family?
