Rae Sullivan lived her life with one simple rule. Don't let anyone get too close. It was her way of self-preservation. After giving her heart to a man that abused and beat her, she knew keeping everyone at arm's length was the best way to protect herself. Only her family and her best friend Daisy knew the real Rae. Working as a substitute teacher helped her keep a safe distance from people; always moving on before anyone got too close. That was until she arrived at Saint Mike's, and A.J Parrish crashed into her life. Father Alex (A.J) Parrish had dedicated his life to his calling, believing that serving God was what he was meant to do. He worked at Saint Mike's high school as the Basketball coach, and he was known for going the extra mile for the kids at the school. Little did he know that going that extra mile would change his life forever. Asking Rae to help one of the kids from his basketball team, AJ didn't realise that this one simple request would turn his world upside down. As his friendship with Rae turns into something more, can they fight what both their hearts long for, or will true love end with a broken vow?
