After his wife passes away, Bill Ponder and his 17-year-old son Wes move to the big city in an attempt to have a fresh start. As they adjust to their new life and seek ways to heal their wounds, they both find comfort in newfound romance. Wes meets Lacy, an introverted but fierce girl whose enigmatic personality captivates Wes' attention, and Bill meets Carine, a compassionate and elegant teacher whose own past heartaches resonate with his.
