Newlyweds Meredith and Quinn McAllister are made for each other. They come from similar unstable backgrounds and have pulled themselves up by their own ambition and determination. Quinn has no qualms about agreeing to Meredith's stipulation that they have no children. That is until five days after their wedding when he learns his best friend, his "brother" from Boys Town days, is dead and Quinn has inherited three pre-school children, whom he'd long ago promised to raise should something happen to their parents.

What is an honorable man supposed to do? In order to keep one promise, he must break another.

Meredith, too, is caught in a dilemma. How can she refuse to take the orphans into her home without revealing her deepest, darkest secret?

Can their newfound love survive this unexpected, drastic change to their carefully made plans?
