After the sudden loss of her husband, Adam (Volume I), Sydnie was thrust into a new life accepting a difficult job in Iowa and proving she was stronger than she ever knew.

Now, as the May flowers bloom, a chance encounter with Mahlon, a man as complicated as he is handsome, begins to reawaken desires Sydnie thought had died forever. Mahlon, too, carries the scars of past relationships, making any emotional or physical connection a tremendous risk.

As their relationship deepens, Sydnie and Mahlon must navigate the pressures of a small town, a meddling daughter, and their own vulnerability. Can two people who have been so deeply hurt find the courage to share their pasts and their bodies to forge a beautiful, uncertain future?

ONE YEAR (Volume II) continues the raw, emotionally charged story of loss, healing, and the explosive power of a second chance at love.
