Even as a teenager, Amy Porter was partial to her twin brother's best friend. As a child, Amy was recognized as “one of the guys” among the guys, and he was the first to notice a girl in the tomboy. Unfortunately, this guy was banned. Amy struggles for years to move on with her life, but when her life takes a turn for the worse, she finally accepts that they are not meant to be together. However, when her world falls apart, Nate is there to help her pick up the pieces. Nate Miller knows that Amy is the one girl he will never have. No matter how much he wants her, Nate won't risk his friendship with her brother or the promise he made to his best friend going overseas with the Marines to look after her. As life continues to throw obstacles in the way and keep them apart, the only logical choice is to give up... but giving up is the last thing Nate wants. Can they find a way to be together with so many problems between them, or will it all eventually lead to the destruction of everything?
