While hurrying to catch a plane, widowed lawyer Mitch Sayer finds a single page from a handwritten letter, a letter offering forgiveness to an unknown recipient.

But thoughts of its possible owner flee his mind when he meets his attractive seatmate, Piper Wynne. Guilt has driven Piper from her family, and her new job as an insurance investigator offers the prospect of starting over.

Mitch's discovery of her letter and his quest for its addressee make it difficult to continue to hide her past, especially as their new friendship deepens.

Will Mitch's love for Piper truly heal her heart?
