"I don't care if you never eat another potato I've cooked or if you lay there in bed and turn into one, but I'll wear white at a funeral before I'll be associated in any manner with Arthur Willowby.

Nate Sawyer has a good life as a bachelor and no immediate interest in forming a permanent relationship. One day, he'll find the girl of his dreams. Until then, he has a loving family and a job he enjoys. He's in no hurry to settle down. Georgianna Smith headed south after the death of her papa and a failed attempt to find love. A new start in a new place seems like her best choice, especially when she learns she's expecting a child. No one there will know what poor decisions she's made and judge her for it. Nate's sudden bout of crippling illness shortens the distance between their neighboring houses. She's his promise of a happy, normal life, and he's the man she should have waited for, a loving man, a perfect would-be father ... if their inward personal struggles don't tear them apart.
