Playing guitar for the elderly has been his only escape, to help them remember and him forget. But when his mom unexpectedly comes back into his life, what is he supposed to do when she isn't the same person who left? When Danna and Ra︢l meet, sparks fly immediately and they embark on a mission to heal her grandfather...and themselves.
