Life is unpredictable. Sandra Cruz never imagined she’d once again go by the name Sandra Durro. Until now! Newlyweds Sandra and Charles head out for a much needed—and much deserved—romantic honeymoon on the island where Sandra and her sister Victoria vacationed in their youth. The island holds special meaning for Sandra, and she can’t wait to share it with Charles. She also plans to confront her past by visiting the beach where her younger sister Abbey drowned years earlier. There, she can also reflect on another more recent loss: the death of her son Preston.

Enduring the turmoil after her son Preston’s passing prompts Sandra Cruz to evaluate her life. Although she’s loved building Cruz Development into one of Florida’s most successful businesses, she decides that time spent in her office has pulled her away from what truly matters: family. Joining with Charles—her ex-husband and new boyfriend—Sandra has combined her business skills with her passion for romance. Together, they created Simply Splendid Proposals, a company men hire to stage and film elaborate marriage proposals.

News of her son’s tragic death ushered in the worst moments of Sandra Cruz’s life. After his father abandoned them, Sandra alone had raised Preston into the man he became. Now, trudging through the difficult task of setting Preston’s affairs in order, Sandra begins learning new things about him. He was a star on a recreational beach volleyball team, he’d recently reconnected with his estranged father, and he was engaged to Krystal… a girl Sandra thought he’d broken up with. Before long, Sandra wonders if she really knew Preston at all.
