Max Ryan meets a mysterious woman, Tina, who doesn't want her heart captured. He has to prove his worth without scaring her off.

Max is a great guy. He has lots of friends and can talk to anybody. He also has a haunting secret.

As a former marine, Max suffers from PTSD. If that wasn't enough, his former girlfriend destroyed his fragile confidence when she dumped him.

Tina West, an unemployed college English teacher until she met Jacob, is alone and in need of a plan when she enters the bar where Max works.

They agreed coffee. Both jilted by past loves, neither believe in fairy tales.

Will the ghosts of past failures threaten to rip them apart?
