The weddings finally happening, and the Kalanski and Kazer family is buzzing.
All except two.
Caleb has been living his life in Chicago as a three time Super Bowl champ and MVP. He had it all. Gorgeous penthouse overlooking the lake and the city he'd fallen in love with eight years ago. His life is seemingly perfect. He hasn't been home since he was drafted half way through his junior year of college...he's dreading going back. But how could he miss his best friends wedding? Especially after Ace named him his best man.
Bailey-Belle is currently the youngest trauma surgeon, being a third year resident, to win two of the most prestigious medical awards in the nation. She's been living in California for the passed eight years. Ignoring her emotions and living with her twin, She's tried her best not to think of home when she's almost forgotten the place and the people she left behind. But how could she miss her big brothers wedding? Especially after Brett names her his best (wo)man alongside Gabe.
Despite their initial reluctance, both return home. Seeing most of their friends and each other for the first time in years, five for Caleb, eight for Bailey, It's overwhelming. Both have to come to terms with feelings they've ignored since they left. Feelings towards the accident, feelings towards the place they've seemingly come to hate, and feelings towards each other.
Their story was left open ended, they are nothing but awkward. One has had a dark few years, the other is engaged but are they really happy?
Both have empty, broken hearts.
Day by day though, they start to heal in the town they fell in love and fell apart. They pick up the pieces of each other as they come to terms with the past. Even returning to something they consider a new-old normal.
Will that love between them ever return?
Did it ever leave in the first place?

This is a story of 2 broken souls who help each other heal. 2 broken souls with hectic lives. But within all the chaos they find comfort in each other. They become each other's rock. But can they hold on to each other despite every obstacle? More importantly can they hold on to themselves?
The blooming of a flower of serenity in an ocean full of ugliness. The love story of Sin and Elyse.
