Widowed single mom Jenna Wood wants to start over, so she buys an ostrich ranch and moves to New Mexico with her young daughter Andee. Flynn Sutton is a pilot who owns the nearby airpark where he rents space to fliers. He’s also Jenna’s tenant and he’s renting the upstairs of her new house. Romantic feelings develop between the two but Jenna is wary of getting too close to Flynn since her husband was also a pilot and he died in a plane crash.

This was a very enjoyable and heartwarming romance. The lead characters were very likable. The ostrich ranch added a uniqueness to the story.
