Bailey Warner, fresh out of college, has landed a job at Kerrytown Elementary and has two things on her mind--teaching children, and avenging a crime that took place a decade ago and changed her world forever. Bachelor Sam Whitley, a.k.a. Uncle Sam, is a lifelong resident of Kerrytown, the county seat of Marley County in Southeast Missouri. A journeyman mechanic at twenty-three and self appointed guardian over his widowed older sister and seven-year-old nephew, his only unfulfilled dream is that of opening a garage of his own one day. When a weird crime occurs and Sam's nephew begs him to keep his beloved schoolteacher, Miss Bailey, safe, Sam agrees and unknowingly takes on a responsibility, and a relationship, he's not sure he can handle.
