Desperate to escape the  reminders of his failure in the line of duty,  Matt is close to leaving town. But one look  at Rachel Carter and her son, Christopher,  has him second-guessing his plans. Rachel  is a mom in need of a hero for her son. But  as much as she wants the two to bond, she's  determined to keep her distance from Matt.  After losing her husband on the job, she  promised never to love another fireman.  Yet somehow she finds herself drawn to  the one man she should avoid.
