After leaving her small town as an unwed teen mother, Wild Rose Robbin is back to help her ailing mother. Always an outsider it seems things won't be much different than they were before she left. Until she meets Coach Grant. At first suspicious of why Rose is hanging around watching basketball practice, Evan soon learns Rose isn't a threat. And as a widower trying to raise a frightened little girl, he certainly has his plate full but that doesn't stop him from wanting to help Rose who seems to be as frightened and hurt as his daughter. But as he gets to know Rose the ugly rumors he's heard don't add up to the woman he's found buried underneath her rough exterior. And as Rose learns to accept the love of others she bears little resemblance to the Wild Rose of years past. In this touching tale of second chances you can't help but remember one of the best reasons for celebrating Christmas -- family.
