Raised with manners, morals, and a good head on her shoulders, 21-year-old Paris doesn’t look a thing like what she’s been through. Due to unforeseen circumstances, Paris is whisked away at an early age and raised by her paternal grandmother. While she blossoms into a respectable young lady, frequent flashbacks from her childhood leave her with a heart full of resentment and a box of letters from her imprisoned father.

As summer break arrives before her final year of college, life as she knows it comes to a screeching halt when her grandmother needs assistance running the family-owned business. Without giving it a second thought, Paris dives in head first, and while learning the ropes, she encounters a roughneck named Sterling. While romance is the farthest thing from her mind, Paris discovers that she thoroughly enjoys Sterling’s company.

Then smack dab in the middle of figuring each other out, the unthinkable happens, and Paris is left wondering if time really can heal all wounds.
