Figure skater Tiffany Lennox is busy with rehearsals for an upcoming ice show when the only man she's ever loved comes home after a two-year overseas stint. She needs him to see her for the woman she's become and not the child he knew to ensure he stays home. This time, for good. With her. For all his wanderlust and hunger for professional success, Cole Greer returns to New York wanting nothing more than to rest, relax, and recover. He is delighted in being Tiffany's hero and has a special place in his heart reserved for her. But faced with the oh-so-desirable woman she's become, he starts questioning his determination to keep their relationship platonic. When forced by the television network to go back on assignment, Cole—for the first time in his life—is torn between his career and his heart.
