The journey continues...

It's never easy to forget or forgive, and life's journey is filled with twists and turns. When the unexpected is thrown in Aiden and Emily's paths, it forces them to question the meaning of true love, and what it means to be a family.

"She loves you, and she's lost so much. You're the only stable and solid thing left holding her together. Don't you dare let her down."

Aiden has made promises... ones he cannot break no matter what obstacles are in his path. Even with the support of his closest friends, the future he envisions seems daunting and unattainable. However, he makes the best of it. He's learned--when one door closes, another opens.

Failing to lay her insecurities to rest, Emily refuses to allow Aiden to break down her barriers. She's learned the art of self-preservation is a valuable skill. If only she could simply avoid Aiden, life would be much easier...

Constant self-doubts, the interference of his ex, and his manipulative family combine to create havoc. As they embark on new journeys in separate cities, each takes steps toward healing, forgiveness, and the acceptance of themselves and their pasts.

Promises are easy to make, but hard to keep...
The eternal bonds of family do not rely on biology alone...
Second chances are sometimes granted and lessons learned...
To love is to forgive and accept...
