After losing her father, brother and now her husband to their work in the fire service, midwife and mothercraft nurse Stephanie Lee leaves Perth for Wirralong to move near a midwife friend from university. She buys her first house along with the Wirralong Creche, where she'll be able to immerse herself in looking after new mothers.

When he's not remodelling homes with his young crew of at-risk young adults, Eli Grayson is a volunteer for the rural fire service and international disaster relief. Eli's never tried to resist the lure of a beautiful woman until he meets Stephanie. It's love at first sight and captivated Eli is determined to win her trust and heart, no matter how long it takes.

She's afraid to love and lose, but he's convinced they can both win. Stevie has to answer the question, is Eli - the most compelling man she's ever met - worth the risk?
