It's the summer of '94. A year since the trauma, ten year old Aaron is still healing from his father's suicide. His mother, Miss Sophie, is finding it difficult to move forward, though the relief in her eyes is unmistakable. Her marriage was not easy, and with the death of her husband she has been handed even more responsibility. When Mary sends her son, Scottie, who is battling kidney disease, to Byrd Spring to help him with his drinking problem, she hopes that he will also help Aaron and his mother with their grief. Miss Sophie is a dear friend and Mary will do anything for her though she holds a secret in her own heart; one she's not yet ready to relinquish. What Mary doesn't realize is that Scottie will revel in the freedom he's recently been given. Though he doesn't think she will ever take notice of him, Joni comes into his life. And when she does, some tough choices must be made; about love, about grief, about everything. Will hope find them in time?
