Already Home

Jason Somers and Rocio Padilla have been friends forever. She used to have feelings for him but didn't think he could see her as more than one of the guys.

Timing has never been right for him to make a move on the one woman he's always wanted. Her fortieth birthday is right around the corner, and she's ready to make big changes. Life throws them a lifeline just in time for a curveball neither saw coming.

Will they let it slip through their fingers or realize in one another's arms that they're already home?
