Jacob Roche often wondered why his parents gave his five-year-old sister Eleanor such a grown up name. Was it possible they somehow knew she would be forced to grow up faster than her peers? Jake was away at college when he received the call. HIs family had been in a tragic car accident. Eleanor was the only survivor leaving just her and Jake to pick up the pieces. Fortunately their Grandpa Frank was right there with them. They had lost so much but were able to carry on with some resemblance of a normal life until their mothers estranged parents, the Henderson's showed up. They wanted custody of Eleanor and the insurance money left behind to take care of her. Jake is befriended by Jordan, a waitress at the local cafe. She is beautiful, smart and good with Eleanor. Ultimately Jake finds himself falling for her, the only problem-his girlfriend at school. Instead of college courses and activities, Jake finds himself in the fight of his life. He knew his parent's wishes and more importantly he knew how he felt. Eleanor was all he had left and no one was going to take her away."
