Joseph Ziebert has been planning and saving for a long time to create the life he wants. Now he's on the verge of making part of his dreams come true, the business part. But he wants a wife and family to share it with. He can't plan that.Emily Mayor has spent years just trying to find the courage to tell her parents she might not want what they want for her. She's finally found the space to figure out what she wants, and she's trying to make her own plans. While she's immediately attracted to Joseph, she worries that maybe his dreams don't appeal to her as much as she thinks. Maybe she's only exchanging her parents' expectations for his. Maybe she's jumped out of the frying pan and landed in the fire.
