Stuck in a small town in North Carolina, Jeremy Towers now has to become a country doctor in order to pay off his student loans. It's far from where he came or what felt familiar. It's only for a couple of years. Surely he can do this, and show his father he can do it on his own.

Kelly Taylor has a secret. It's a poorly kept one in such a small town, but there's no help for that. She can't undo what's happened before. Now with a new doctor in town, things are going to change. How will her secret affect this new doctor and, maybe even more importantly, her?
