When tragedy robs Jessica Roberts of both the love of her life and her means of financial support, she forms a single-minded resolve: to develop financial and emotional independence, while never allowing herself to love so completely again. She encounters a dangerous distraction from her goals, however, in handsome David Bennington and his three lively children.
Since his wife left him for a career in law, David has struggled to raise his children while simultaneously running his fledgling company. He has no interest in a romantic relationship, especially with another high-powered career woman, even one as beguiling as Jessica Roberts.
But David’s children crave both their father’s strength and Jessica’s gentle caring—so lacking in their lives until now. Can Jessica and David resolve their doubts, find love, and establish the nurturing environment these children so desperately need?
