But Gretchen must struggle to overcome cynicism and painful memories to trust a man who kindles long-missing thoughts of romance. Together, they have a chance to reshape the effort to end homelessness and rebuild the economy from the bottom up instead of top down, but only if she can climb over the wall she has built around herself.
