Lennie has dedicated her career to healing those unable to tell her whats wrong, but Mitch is a puzzle even she struggles to solve - or completely let go. Meanwhile, back in Lennies old home town, another man of mixed messages, her high school crush Benji Cooper, is all grown up and looking at Lennie the way she always dreamed he would. Can Mitch find the courage to let Lennie into his life? And with gorgeous, sunny, funny Benji waiting in the wings, is it a threshold Lennie wants to cross? Theres also the matter of her grandparents unexpectedly fractured marriage to mend, and Lennies growing suspicion there might be more to the sale of her grandfathers clinic than meets the eye.
