Ellen Brittingham loves life and lives everyday to the
fullest. She has always been a bit of a tomboy and finds
peace outdoors, so it is no surprise that she rides a
Harley and lives on a houseboat. Her passion is children
and she would love nothing more than to devote her time to
the youth at the community center, but she has obligations
to her family's nursery. She is a landscape designer, but
she is shouldering more of the work as her parents grow
older. She has no time for love, and is not even sure
there is someone for her. However, when a widower with a
son moves in next door, he sure has her attention. She
immediately is drawn to the troubled son, and cannot help
but notice that there is a fiancée attached to the
widower. According to her mother and friends, a fiancée is
not a wife, so Ellen still has a chance. With everything
seeming so complicated, how can Ellen figure out her path?
Is this what God has planned for her?

his son. As he watches Ellen coax Pete out of his shell,

successful businessman, he's engaged to a beautiful woman
and he'll soon have a stepmom for his troubled son, Pete.
Yet from the moment Ellen rescues a stranded Adrian on her
Harley, his well-ordered world turns upside down. With his
business under investigation for espionage and his son
pushing for the tomboy next door as his new mom, Adrian's
facade of happiness shatters.
As Ellen and Pete
bond, she realizes that Adrian is about to marry the wrong
woman. Despite her resolve to remain ?neighbors only,? Ellen
is drawn to Adrian. But how can she be the one when he's
engaged to a sophisticated beauty who is everything Ellen
isn't?
As Ellen's three best friends step in to
help her navigate this uncharted territory, Ellen must ask
herself whether she's ready to risk the heart that she's
always held close. Will Ellen trust that God brought this
family into her life for a reason? Or will fear cause her to
turn away from God's plan and her one true chance at love?
