As Darby Dixon sits in her wedding dress in a Texas church bathroom, holding a positive pregnancy test, she realizes that marrying her fiance would be the worst decision of her life. Finally, he decides to leave to start over in a new city with a new name. The girl moves to Colorado Springs, Colorado, where she starts working as a receptionist at a hotel. Everything is going great until she meets the handsome stranger, Trex.

Scott "Trex" Trexler has already traveled the world as a Marine. Now with his new job, he finally has the opportunity to return to the only place where he could live peacefully: Colorado Springs.

Darby is immediately attracted to Trex, which is mutual, of course, but she feels there's no way she'll get involved with another man she can't fully trust - and Trex is definitely not being completely honest with her. And they soon realize that what they don't know can hurt them a lot.
