There's no better place to spend Christmas than on the Chesapeake Bay, where it's always the perfect season to start over. Former police officer Paul Thompson has come to the little town of Pleasant Shores to heal his PTSD. The prescription involves volunteering, therapy and, most of all, a stable routine for his young son. Falling for Amber Rowe, however, would make that stability impossible. Even though she immediately bonds with little Davey, Amber's future is filled with uncertainty, and Paul can't bear to see his son love and lose someone else.

But as Christmas draws near and their joint volunteer project develops, so does the depth of their feelings. And soon, Amber will have to choose between keeping a promise and committing to a risky love'
