Grace, following the death of her husband Hank, was forced to carry on with her life as best she could. Raising an inquisitive boy, Georgie, as a single mother and running the law firm and other endeavors that she and Hank had begun was a huge challenge that demanded all of her time. Jack, her half-brother, was helpful with Georgie but often added to her burdens when he became periodically unpredictable.

As life moved on, she was able to balance all of this until she met two men. Adam, a ranch hand with an easy living style and smooth moves, and Jerry, a long-time supportive friend who hides his true feelings, both challenged her to introspection and the need to discover what sort of future she wished for herself.
