Sara English built a life for herself far from her native Los Angeles. As a widow and proprietor of a florist shop in small town America, she lives a mundane life but she's never forgotten her first love, Santiago Ruiz or the way he hurt her.

When he shows up at her door early one morning, he's a stranger but the old attraction hasn't died. Last she knew, he was a cop but now he's sporting a gang tattoo on his back and he's on the run. When she freaks out, Santiago swears he's been in deep cover as Javier Morales for two years but his cover was blown and he's in danger.

As their reunion heats up, the drama reaches a new level when her apartment windows are shattered in a burst of gunfire. Unless Santiago can find a way to change things, he's a dead man. Sara's committed to the long haul and hopes for a happy ending—if they can live long enough to find one.
