Four years after burying his young wife, New York sales executive Christian Crews still can't move forward with his life. Day after day, treasured memories of his beloved Elyse drift through his spirit like a procession of mournful ghosts.

Chris wants to leave Manhattan - walk away from his job and the apartment he and Elyse once shared. He dreams of moving to New Hampshire, where he feels he just might have a chance of finding peace. But, in his grieving mind, breaking away from those memories would be the same as abandoning Elyse - an unforgivable act of betrayal he could never live with.

Then, on the fourth anniversary of Elyse's death, Chris makes two shocking discoveries, and a part of him begins to believe that she would want him to go on with his life.

Two weeks later, he makes the move to New Hampshire, and minutes after arriving in the small rural village of Mountain Step, he meets a beautiful local woman with mesmerizing gray eyes and a heart as big as the surrounding mountains. Beginning another emotional relationship may be the last thing on Chris' mind, but he soon finds himself falling for Gina Elkin, every bit as hard as she's fallen for him.

Could there be a future for them? Will Elyse allow it? After all, she's still deep within Chris' heart - a place no one else has ever been.
