Emma Perry's life was turned right upside down in an instant when her late husband and child were both killed in a housefire. She never thought she would survive the tragedy of it all, much less be able to trust anyone again. The Witness Protection Program took her into a new area, Rosewood Texas to start anew. But she must never reveal anything about her past to anyone.

Emma started making new friends and opened a shop, Try It On, which became successful. In fact, it needed more growing space finally, and this is where Seth comes into the picture. He is her next door neighbor, and also a designer/contractor. Emma seeks his advice reluctantly on building on to her shop, and it is then that the two of them might become more than friends. But Seth is struggling with his own pain from the loss of his son years ago from cancer, and has not been able to deal with his pain anymore then Emma.

When Toby comes along, who is a kid without a home, he tugs at both their heartstrings. Seth especially, feels connected to the boy, and as the story develops, new relationships will form and become stronger. Especially when another unexpected event takes place.
