Grace used to be an unruly teenager who had rebelled against the rules and ended up a teen mother. Unfortunately, she was not ready for the drastic turn her life had taken and she ran away leaving everything behind...including her daughter, Brooke.

A few years pass and Grace has matured and gotten her life together. She's now twenty years old and realizing that she has much to make amends for. She returns to her small hometown in Oaktown, Tennessee to find forgiveness and give her daughter the life she deserves.

Upon returning, she dives right into motherhood and bonding with her five year old daughter Brooke who is just starting kindergarten. When she realizes that the town snob, Kelly Caldwell, is trying to tear down Brooke's favorite park Grace goes to work protesting. She has to save that park and the memories the two of them have together there.

Grace also notices that she may be feeling more than friendship for her high school best friend, David. It seems he has powerful feelings for her as well...and has since they were kids. How had she never seen it before?
Things get complicated quick and everything is up in the air. A bomb is dropped and now Grace and David aren't speaking. Things are looking bleak for saving the park. Nothing is turning out the way Grace had hoped it would. Why did life have to be so complicated?

Will Grace be able to be the mother Brooke needs her to be? Even yet, when she and David get into their biggest fight ever, will they find a way back to each other again?
