Cassidy Smith is a small-town girl whose hopes and dreams are crushed when her long-time high school boyfriend leaves for college then promptly marries someone else six months later. To get away from the gossip and talk, she winds up moving away to go to school and heal her broken heart.
Ten years later, she returns home to help care for her ailing father, only to wind up staying after his death. Once again a topic for gossip, she goes through her day on autopilot, convinced that her one shot at love has passed her by.
Jared Knox hated how his older brother treated Cassidy and longs to see the sparkle return to her eyes. He remembers her head thrown back in laughter during one of their family game nights and vows to get her back to that point once again. Only, he and his family are now the enemy. Determined to show her otherwise, he sets out to prove to her that coming home was the best thing she could have done.
But when Cade returns to town, newly divorced, will his plans go awry when his brother once again sets his sights on Cassidy? Or will Cassidy have outgrown her childish infatuation and realize that Jared is the Knox man she loves?
