Can love mend what life has broken?

In small town Kentucky, Scarlett has spent the last five years caring for her nephew, Ben, while trying to grow her baking business. Life has never been easy for Scarlett, but it takes a complicated turn when she loses her biggest client and gets behind on her rent. And to make things worse, Scarlett’s sister goes missing at the same time Ben's estranged father suddenly demands custody, leaving Scarlett to find a way to keep Ben.

As she tries to keep her life from falling apart, Scarlett crosses paths with Tristen, a musician struggling to revive his career while embroiled in a paternity suit with a girlfriend he hasn’t seen in years. Sparks fly immediately, but Tristen is planning to leave town and needs to focus on his career. It wouldn’t be fair to get involved with Scarlett. And yet, he can’t stop thinking about her…

Will love be the key ingredient to overcoming their obstacles, or will the pressures of family and ambition tear them apart? Discover a heartwarming tale of love, trust, and redemption where the sweetest moments can mend the deepest scars.

Will Scarlett and Tristen find the strength to let love in?
