Synopsis
His past won't let him go. Her future looked nothing like she'd planned.
Cameron Harper is tough. He holds his emotions close and his relationships at arm's length. To the outside world he is strong, self-assured and a hard worker. But beneath his over-confident and often-brooding façade, is a man longing for acceptance. He was burnt once and has carried the scars from that rejection around with him his whole life. Trust is not easily given, and the walls around his heart are there for his own self-preservation. Which is why Alyssa Torrens bothers him so much.
As Cameron's new physical therapist aiding his recovery from a car accident, Alyssa sees beyond the walls he has successfully held in place for so long. She's not after a fun time, like the majority of girls in Tallowood Valley. In fact, she seems to be hiding behind walls of her own, and that piques Cameron's interest.
Alyssa moved to Tallowood Valley to help her parents run Hidden Vale Cottages, after her father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease. Leaving behind her life on the north coast of New South Wales, Alyssa resigns herself to the fact that her future now involves caring for her ageing father and helping run the family business. Gone are her plans of establishing her own business and settling down in the beachside community to raise her own family. For now, she needs to focus on supporting her mother, and grieving for a father who is unable to remember her. With a bleak-looking future, can Alyssa trust in God to guide her steps?
Is Alyssa capable of breaking down Cameron's walls to help him overcome his past? Is Cameron able to help Alyssa see a brighter future?
A heart-warming story weaving hope and faith throughout the difficult circumstances of life.
