When seven-year-old Amanda Jarvis asks God to send her a best friend to live in the vacant house near her isolated mountain home, she's sure it will be a girl. But when Tyler Armstrong moves in, Amanda quickly accepts that God sent a boy instead. The two become fast friends, lost in the innocence of childhood as they share life in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina.

 

Through the years, memories of his abusive father fuel Tyler's desire to make the world a safer place, so he'll do whatever it takes to become a Navy SEAL. However, falling in love with Amanda wasn't part of his plans. Maybe his failed attempts to confess his love turned out for the best. Even if their shared faith helps them navigate the demands of SEAL life, Tyler fears asking Amanda to live with the uncertainties of his career. She deserves better.

 

When Amanda's plans for college fall through and her summer job in New York catapults her into a modeling career, she welcomes the distraction. Not only is she falling for Tyler, but his impending deployment turns her world upside down. The more she learns of Navy SEALs, the more her dreams of finding out Tyler's in love with her fade behind the fear she's not strong enough to spend her life with him.

 

Will they let go of their fears and give love a chance before it's too late?
