Between managing his ranch, raising three children, and coaching a local baseball team, he has carefully cultivated a gruff, guarded reputation to keep the world at bay.

As they grow closer, both Ben and Jessica must confront the ghosts of their pasts and the old hurts that threaten to hold them back. In this heartwarming story of faith and forgiveness, they must decide if the risk of opening their hearts is worth the promise of a future together.
