Melinda McDaniel has everything she’s ever wanted. Newly engaged and soon to be an RN, she’s on the fast track for promotion after deciding she’ll specialize in orthopedics. Even discovering she’s pregnant doesn’t dampen her enthusiasm for the future since having kids had always been part of their plan.
But through no fault of her own, Mel loses the baby. And then tragedy strikes again only a few weeks later, when she’s informed that her fiancé Alex, an Air Force pilot, has been killed in action in Iraq.
Devastated, Mel moves forward, accepting a surprising job offer to work at the newly built Wounded Warrior Home in Crystal Rock, Wisconsin. Her duties as an R.N. will include overseeing the young disabled residents of Crystal Visions, located nearby.
Former Navy vet, Steve Ryder, gave up his opportunity to train as a Seal to take care of his wife, Amy, who was diagnosed with cancer. Deciding to continue his education, he eventually trains to become a physical therapist. After her death, an unexpected opportunity leads him to the Crystal Rock Wounded Warrior Home, where he’s hired as a physical therapist.
Sparks fly when Mel and Steve meet, but Mel is not even close to being ready for a new relationship, so she keeps Steve at arm’s length, even when they’re working together.
After three long years, their mutual love of a young disabled boy named Ben brings them closer. And when they discover that Ben has lost his sponsor and will be unable to continue living at the residential facility, where he’s receiving the finest specialized care, they decide they need to come up with a solution so that Ben can continue to thrive.
But will they finally be able to stop their sparring and admit that the attraction that they’re fighting just might be love?
