Sal Bello doesn't know how to be around people - he's spent his life being a soldier and that's all he wants to do. He's never been in love and he doesn't understand what it does to the men around him, struggling to hold their marriages together. For Sal, the rules are a comfort, a way to live life without the messiness of emotions that tend to get out of control.

Holly Washington has been spent her life around men like Sal Bello and she knows exactly how to get around his focus on the rules. She knows first hand that sometimes doing the right thing involves breaking the rules. She's not interested in the stoic officer who never seems to smile but something about him captures her curiosity. Beneath the gruff exterior, she sees a hint of a man shaped by a crushing loneliness that even he may not realize he carries within him.

When work throws them together in an impossible situation, Sal is forced to make a choice: break the rules or risk losing his last chance at love... and finding a home.
