A heartwarming tale of redemption, family, and overcoming adversity...
Fourteen years ago, Jake Burrows enlisted in the military after the sudden death of his wife, leaving his infant son Charlie behind. When he is injured overseas, he decides to recuperate in the small town where he grew up, despite being unsure if he will be welcome at home.
The calmness and peace of Windsor Peak are a sharp contrast to the war zone Jake has returned from, and the memories that haunt him. As Jake tries to fix his relationship with Charlie, the physical and mental damage from years at war continues to wreak havoc on his life.
Shea Kerrigan has been writing to Jake since he enlisted, and when he interrupts a first date to announce he is home, she is shocked. She realizes that her feelings for Jake run deep, and that maybe her heart was waiting for him all these years. But should she let herself completely fall for someone who could leave her soon?
As people from his past pop up in his life, Jake is forced to relive some of his worst days in the military, and the guilt he carries with him. The decision of whether to return to his military life or remain in Windsor Peak looms over his head as he recovers and could mean the difference in more than one relationship in his life.
Will Jake allow himself to fully come home and build a future with Shea and Charlie? Or will obligation and his past send him back to battle?
