Ten years ago, Gabriel Martin's sister was brutally murdered. He
and his brother, Sam, have struggled to overcome the guilt,
resulting in both of them taking dangerous jobs. As a fireman,
Gabriel has devoted his life to protecting others. Yet no matter
how many people he saves, he can't resurrect Jessie. The pain never
leaves, keeping him from understanding his own goodness. It's only
when he's the first responder to a brutal attack against Dr. Maddie
Gilcrest that he realizes he can make a difference. Still, there
are years of pain and guilt Gabriel is sinking beneath. Maddie
struggles with her own fears. She can't offer him absolution any
more than he can change her past, but sometimes love is enough.

In October Breezes, Devin Abbott almost lost the one person who
mattered most-Skye Williams. Following a rape and an abortion she'd
never counted on, she'd believed suicide the only answer, yet Devin
saved her, leaving them both struggling to make sense of a future
that included Skye and Devin separating for college. Sometimes,
however, the past refuses to leave. After college, the two return
home to face fears time has only deepened. For Devin, that fear
comes in the form of living without Skye, the one woman he's always
loved. Skye yet feels the tremors of her abortion-tremors which
have convinced her she's unlovable. Time and again, she rejects
him, leaving them both hurt, but inasmuch as Skye cannot see beyond
her choice and Devin cannot shake his fear, neither anticipates how
the past will shape them and how much power love yet has.

Kaylee Renard has never taken the time for love. Independence and
financial security have always been top priority. Besides, she
believed there will be time for a relationship later, when she can
fit it in. In light of a terminal cancer diagnosis, however, her
views change, and when Kaylee passes out and falls into a pond,
Bastian Connelly, alone and suicidal, goes in after her, hoping
that in trying to save Kaylee's life, he will end his own. But life
isn't done with Bastian, and neither is love. As Kaylee comes to
love him, she wonders what she's missed and seeks to find whatever
gifts fate might grant her.
All Sarah and Evan Davis ever wanted was a child, but after two
dangerous miscarriages, they face an unbearable-and
uncertain-future. Evan tries to console her, but Sarah refuses to
be swayed. Against doctor's advice, Sarah allows herself to get
pregnant, and this time gives birth to a beautiful boy, Kade. At
long last, both Sarah and Evan believe their lives are complete, at
least until their son is diagnosed with autism, something neither
of them expected-a change that leads to an even harsher reality:
sometimes love, no matter how hard, must be enough.
At sixteen, Jennifer Landry thinks the worst thing that can happen
is getting pregnant, but when Waylan Thompson, her boyfriend of two
years, suddenly dies in a car wreck and Jennifer miscarries, she
thinks her life is over. Still, Sean, Waylan's older brother,
manages to pull her through. Although the two lose contact for
years, Jennifer runs into Sean as she is raising her two teenage
sons alone. He, too, is divorced. The years have allowed them both
to heal into adults who share a mutual scar, and what was once
simply a foundation of shared grief becomes more, especially as
Jennifer faces another possible loss-her oldest son, who wrecks on
an icy road. It's going to take everything Sean has to save her
again, and he has to: he can't imagine his world without her in it.
