No city buses, no big movie cinemas, no street lights and no 911 service. Sarah worries that Brian will grow bored and get into trouble but she has her own worries, like finding a job to support them. There isn't much call for more waitresses in a town with one diner and a coffee shop. How will she support them so they can stay here in her home town?

Then there is the hunky sheriff who's also new to town, Carl Pierce, who seems to be quite interested in learning more about Sarah and her son.

A contemporary romance for everyone to enjoy.
