To ease the burden of her husband's passing, Diane Mobley moved in with her in-laws. It's good for everyone involved. She can take over their gourmet food shop, and they will give her daughter, Nicole, the love she needs to grow and flourish.
When Nicole's new drama teacher, Carver Whiting, turns out to be her husband's high school best friend, their instant attraction is fraught with doubt and guilt. Her husband casts a huge shadow between them.
Adding pressure is a secret from her past, which might just be more than their fragile relationship can stand. It could be that forgiveness, peace, and joy, the meanings of Christmas, aren't meant for her. It could be that finding love the second time around is simply out of reach.
