Magnolia Freeman (aka Noli) is the cousin of Diane.  Noli has lost both her parents in a tragic accident and feels lost and alone in the world.  She has closed herself off from her true feelings and won't let anyone see how much she is really hurting.  She also closes herself off from others and does not want to form attachments because she is afraid she will lose them too.  She meets Copper Smith the best man and falls for him.  She runs away from her love for Cooper and leaves him feeling abandoned all over again.Cooper Smith is Jack's best friend and is his best man.  Cooper has his own pain and abandonment issues and his heart is also full of pain and loss.  In the past he was a womaniser and does not encourage long term relationships, he has never allowed anyone to get that close to him.  He meets Noli and is very attracted to her.  He breaks down her walls long enough to reach her and he falls in love with her.  His love is rejected, or so it appears when Noli leaves him without saying goodbye.Noli returns to see Cooper, due to an upcoming event in her life which will impact Cooper's live also and this causes her to face him again.  This event forces Noli and Cooper to deal with the losses in their lives if they are ever to have a future together.  Can their love stand up to the tests that are presented to them and can they trust their love to heal each other's pain?This is a great story and I would recommend it as a great read.
