Claire Martinez knows all about failing theaters—she watched her mother's dreams crumble when their family venue was condemned. Now, as White Harbor Theater's new business manager, she's determined to expand the theater's success before history can repeat itself.

The only thing standing in her way is Tom Wood, the thoughtful, brooding eldest Wood brother who believes they're growing too fast. A former pro hockey player turned architect, Tom is driven to keep his family whole.

When structural problems threaten the historic building, Claire and Tom must work together to save it. But as they navigate preservation grants and legal battles, they discover their opposing views might be the perfect foundation for something unexpected. Yet just as their attraction deepens, Claire's ex arrives with an offer to franchise the theater program nationwide, forcing them to decide what success really means.

Who does she trust?

With help from the close-knit Wood brothers and a century of theatrical history, Claire and Tom learn that some foundations are built on more than concrete and steel—and that the strongest structures are made from love.
