"It's true what they say. The higher you fly, the harder you fall. And the harder you fall, the stronger you rise."
Melanie Thompson flew high with her first love, she was higher than cloud nine. But the good news is nothing good lasts forever. Because good can become bad in the blink of an eye.
Being a single mother is hard enough as it is. She put her hopes and dreams on hold to give her all to her daughter, Lexi. But she never stopped hoping that love - true love - might knock on her door somewhere along the way.
Melanie has got a lot of baggage, and she's got a lot of secrets hidden that she intends to carry to her grave. What she didn't count on was all of the plot twists life threw at her, and how they risked what she'd fought so hard for.
But not all plot twists are bad. Some come in the shape of tall, blonde haired French bakers and go by the name of Sébastien Martin.
At least this one does.
