University Professor Peyton Harris will do whatever it takes to escape her overbearing, socialite parents and the fiancé she can never love, even if it means moving from New York to tiny Trinity Falls, Ohio. It is a big step, but when she finds herself working with the town's most eligible and marriage-averse bachelor it's just the first of many. Journalist Darius Knight has problems of his own. His newly separated parents are driving him crazy, and he's been persuaded to co-chair a fundraiser with Peyton that is obviously matchmaking-in-disguise. But soon enough their mutual attraction is obvious too. The closer they get, the more they realize they have in common. Are they brave enough to truly open their hearts by sharing their secrets and their fears? When Peyton's past shows up uninvited, they may have no choice.
