Officer Quincy Adams is a hero. She pulled eleven people from burning cars and risked her own life to save the twelfth--a woman trapped in a car that could explode at any moment. But the event begins to trigger flashbacks to another time. Another tragedy. Trying to avoid the depression that she's certain is just around the corner, Quincy heads to the local lesbian bar in search of light and life.

Lindy James is a loner. She's only at the bar to celebrate her best friend's birthday. But something about the bedraggled woman, whose image is Breaking News on the TV, touches her heart and she agrees to drive the stranger home.

But Quincy doesn't want to be alone and Lindy agrees to stay as long as Quincy doesn't expect sex or ask personal questions. One night turns into three intimate but sexless nights. Then Monday morning Quincy asks Lindy for a date. And Lindy flees.

Thrown together by a devastating accident, but kept apart by fears from the past--will Quincy and Lindy take a chance on love?
