Claire Bennett never planned on starting over in a small town, but after a painful breakup, she needs a fresh start. As the new teacher at Lakeside Elementary, she's determined to focus on her students and rebuild her life one lesson at a time. But when a surprise parent-teacher meeting brings rugged single dad Jake Dalton into her classroom, Claire's carefully laid plans take an unexpected turn.
Jake is doing his best to raise his daughter, Ellie, on his own while keeping life simple and steady. He doesn't have room for complications - especially not the kind that comes with the bright, kind-hearted teacher who's managed to capture Ellie's admiration and his own guarded heart.
As Claire and Jake's lives keep intertwining - from school projects to spontaneous coffee dates - they find it harder to ignore the chemistry building between them. But when small-town whispers and lingering fears threaten their fragile bond, both must decide whether they're willing to take a chance on happiness.
Can Claire and Jake find the courage to let love in, or will fear keep them apart? Sometimes, the most unexpected meetings turn out to be the ones that change your life forever.
