Kaleeja Kelly is feeling trapped in a life she didn’t choose. When her grandmother got sick, her mom didn’t want to run their B&B. Kaleeja took over the business and cares for her grandmother. Then her mom lands flat on her back. Kaleeja is responsible for both the family and their income. There’s no time to think about her dreams or finding someone special. Monroe Bruce chose the wrong path. His wife is controlling and mean-spirited. His ruthless father-in-law is his boss. Monroe hates his job and his life. While vacationing at an idyllic smalltown B&B, he dares to dream of something more. Two years after he loses everything, Monroe remembers the beautiful Black woman, who is nothing like any woman he’s ever known. When he returns to see Kaleeja, he’s a broken man. He doesn’t know if she'll want him. But Kaleeja is broken too, and what she desires most is the sweet man she’s never forgotten. Can they trust themselves to choose the love that’s budding between them?
