✦ Synopsis

Sarah Pendleton, a first grade teacher in Portland, Oregon, feels duty-bound as she returns to her hometown of Mistletoe Valley—and to her conflicted past. While growing up in her small, rural community Sarah lived with her grandparents, who served their community well—especially her grandfather, a pastor. Yet Sarah despised being the "perfect preacher's kid" in a small town where everyone knew everyone else's business. Rebellious, she fell for a stereotypical "bad boy" during high school and after graduation, they married. When they learned she was pregnant, he left her for parts unknown. Unable to support the baby, Sarah gave her up for adoption, yet ever since, guilt has consumed her. She believes she doesn't deserve to have a second chance at being a mother again. Now a decade later, she is the sole inheritor of her grandparents' estate. She must decide whether to sell the property, or make the painful choice of staying in a town where folks remember her rebellious past.
