After gaining an old, dilapidated Manor house after her grandmother's death, James Harper Reynolds moves back to her home town. Spending every second of her day working on the house, running her business or arguing with her long term boyfriend, adult life isn't quite as relaxing as she had been expecting when he was a child but it's fair to say her life has taken a turn since the love of her life, Ezra McKinley abandoned her at 18 with just a letter saying he was sorry. 

Now, nearly 9 years later, Ezra takes on a job with a restoration business and things go from bad to worse when the job he's working on happens to be for James.

~~~
"Ezra means nothing to me. He's someone I dated-"
"Someone you dated? James, you don't even love Nick the way you loved Ezra."
"That's unfair, they're different people. I love Nick."
"If you loved Nick you wouldn't be hiding this from him."
