Maia Donovan watched her friends find true love, and has dreamed of her own happily-ever-after, but wishes and reality dont always match up. When Maia met Joel Sandeford, she thought shed found a man worth the risk of another broken heart. But shes hesitant. Joel lives out of town and always seems to be working. Maia, too, works long hours and spends most of her time managing The Front Street Gallery. She fears the distance and their work ethics may spell disaster. Both Joel and Maia have assumptions and memories from their pasts that make living fully in the present a challenge. Maia doesnt realize the biggest obstacle to her happily-ever-after may be herself, and the memories shes hiding in her heart-that part of her heart that still belongs to her first true love. If Maia cant resolve her fears or give up those old feelings, then finding her happily-ever-after may become an impossible dream._,
