The Thomsons, Anna Lynn and Shaine together with their five-children are in West Virginia due to the death of Shaine's cousin Eustace. Shaine's been saddled with the duties of executor of Eustace's worldly-goods which includes the house they're presently staying in while Shaine struggles with the legalese.
Lately, Shaine's been acting indifferent toward Anna Lynn, barely spending time with her and the kids. Seems as if the duties as executor has given him another reason to go off on his own. When he is home, his friends and brothers surround him, making Anna Lynn feel excluded.
What's going on? Has his love gone cold? Is he thinking of leaving? Shaine is stubbornly silent on what's going on in his head.
And what is, is nothing like what Anna Lynn was expecting...
