Running from danger is something single Mum, Emma McIntosh, thought she'd never have to do. But, now it's imperative, in order for her to protect her daughter. Starting afresh in the quaint country town of Holbrook, she wants anonymity, so that her secrets, stay exactly that - secret. Hoping to rediscover herself after being hurt, the last thing she's looking for is to fall in love. What she didn't count on was sexy farmer, Benjamin Beckett, who is as curious as he is friendly and as frustrating as he is handsome.
Ben is Holbrook's most eligible bachelor with his own secret. One, which has cost him the desire to commit to a relationship. His idyllic life is turned upside down when Emma and her daughter Zoe barrel into town. Ben is immediately attracted to the mysterious woman, but when Emma rejects his proposal for a casual fling, he must be content on being simply her friend.
As their friendships grows, so does their love for one another. But, a broken heart isn't all they're in danger of. When Emma's past finally catches up with her, it places not only her and Zoe's life at risk but Ben's too. Is love enough to keep her in Holbrook or will she choose a life on the run?
