After a painful breakup and an engagement falling apart, Kaliyah retreats to her late grandmother's home in the quiet country, hoping for a fresh start. What she finds instead is Joshua-the once-annoying yard boy who's grown into the kind of man she swore she wasn't ready for. One unexpected kiss pulls them together. His sudden distance threatens to tear them apart. But when her ex-fiancé shows up unannounced and a fight breaks out on her driveway, Kaliyah is forced to confront what she's running from... and who she's running toward.
