Carissa Porter is tired of being a wallflower. She's starting to wonder what's wrong with her. Why won't any man even look her way? About the only thing she can do well is bake, so she does just that, and tries to forget about how she'll be single the rest of her life.

Duncan Marshall wants to tell Carissa how he feels about her, but something stops him every time. After being left at the altar, he's not offering up his heart ever again, even if he senses she might be different. It's something he just can't risk. So, he continues to offer friendship, and nothing more.

When a letter arrives that may remove Carissa from his life, and put her in another's, will Duncan listen to his heart and show her that they should be together? Or is it too late?
