Two years ago, Riley Young left Lawton, Alabama. After accusing Rhett, the son of the founding Lawton family, of rape, everyone thinks she's a liar and she has no choice but to leave town. Now she's back, but not to graduate from Lawton High School. She's home raising a little girl and no one believes it's Rhett's baby. Rhett has gone off to college for the life he feared he'd lose because of Riley's accusations, so she agrees to return to Lawton to help her parents take care of her grandmother, who is suffering Alzheimer's. But the town still hasn't forgotten their hatred of her, and Riley hasn't forgotten how they turned on her when she needed their support most. When local golden boy Brady Higgins runs into Riley and her daughter Bryony stranded on the side of the road in a thunderstorm, he stops to give them a ride. Not because he's worried about Riley, of course, but because of the baby. But after a routine car ride, he begins to question everything he thought he knew. Will Brady trust Riley at the risk of losing everything?
