There is courage in each step no matter how small After losing her leg in Iraq it's been an uphill battle for Eastlyn Parker. When Nick and Cord decide to confront her in Bakersfield, the ex-helicopter pilot reluctantly agrees that starting over in Pelican Pointe might be the only option for her. It won't be easy though. She has addiction problems that go beyond her low self-esteem. After a long absence, Cooper Richmond has come back to his childhood home. In an attempt to escape his own painful memories, he's traveled the world over as a photographer. But no matter where he goes, he's locked in an emotional void. His approach to life is merely to get along. He does that with his books and his train store. But when Eastlyn shows up at Cooper's shop, their brief encounter blossoms into attraction. Both are cautious. Both have trust issues. But if these two have the courage to leave behind their baggage once and for all, and set their sights on the future, there may still be hope for a happy ending.
