description: HATHAWAY HOUSE Lance - 12 Welcome to Hathaway House. Rehab Center. Safe Haven. Second chance at life and love. Lance Mayfair sought out Hathaway House at the recommendation of a friend, who told him it was an answer to prayer. Lance knows more about prayers than answers, but, if he can see progress in one particular area of his life and health, it will be worth the effort and the pain. He'll do anything he can to play music again. It's all he has left now that his days as a Navy SEAL are over and, with them, any chance of a happy, productive life.However, the shoulder injury that ended his career pretty much guarantees he'll never play his beloved instruments ever again.Unless Hathaway House and Jessica can work a miracle.Jessica has worked with many patients at Hathaway House, but she connects with Lance in a way she didn't with any of the others. She can see the need inside him-his desire to create again, to heal through music. And his goal becomes her goal: to see him play music in his soul again.Only his music isn't all he wants or needs, and making him happy goes a long way to making her happy, but it's not enough. Both want and need so much more.
