Veterinarian Yvette Hepler thought she had closed the door on her ex-husband Tate after his betrayal shattered their marriage. Co-parenting their children is a constant tug-of-war, with Tate playing the fun parent while Yvette shoulders the responsibility. But when Tate suffers a tragic accident, Yvette finds herself at his side once more. Against her better judgment, she opens her home—and her heart—to the man who once broke it. As they rediscover each other, old wounds begin to heal, and Yvette dares to believe in second chances.  But with Tate's lover still in the picture and shocking secrets revealed, can they have a future together?

Meanwhile, Brooke and Dillon McGregor begin their married life sooner than planned, exchanging vows in front of family and friends.  With a baby on the way and Dillon’s past as a guardian angel behind him, they settle into a loft at Carson Farm—only to discover that Dillon’s human life carries dangerous baggage. A ruthless gun dealer resurfaces, forcing Dillon into secret exchanges under threats against Brooke and their family.  Can Brooke and Dillon escape the past in order to build their future?

Two couples. Two battles with the past. One question: can love survive when secrets and danger refuse to stay buried?
