Bianca McClain has worked for years to achieve her dream job in New York City. After her grandmother passes away, she finds herself returning to the small town she grew up in to ready her house for sale. The slow, friendly pace of the town and its citizens, especially Pete the mailman, appeal to her—but there's no way she's giving up everything she's accomplished in New York.

Born and raised in Centreville, MD, Pete Schaeffer loves his small town mail carrier job and can't imagine leaving for any reason—or anyone—so he's dumbfounded by his intense attraction to Bianca, a woman with a fast–paced life in the big city.

Pete and Bianca soon find themselves lost in each other's arms. When the summer ends, they will have big decisions to make. Will the small–town guy and big–city girl find common ground and lasting love, or will their differences drive them apart?
