A man who wants to start over. A woman who wants to forget. A town that never forgets anything.
Following the death of his wife and unborn son, police officer Nick Drago moves from their quiet Nova Scotia town to the tourist locale of Invermere, British Columbia. Hoping to start a new life and leave the ghosts of his grief behind, Nick meets Dr. Samantha Garner, single mother to a teenaged son with her own demons and past that haunts her.
With Nick determined to find love in spite of what others might think, and sometimes with the assistance of Sam’s well-meaning son and their friends, the two embark on a relationship, hoping that it is not too soon for Nick and too late for Sam. But other processes have been set in motion, too, and they threaten to tear apart the quiet lives that Sam and Nick have made for themselves.
Who is Josh’s father, and why has Sam guarded his identity for so long? Will knowing the truth destroy her son, or Sam’s relationship with him? Will the news make the small town take sides, and what side will the new police officer fall onto once the lines are drawn?
