After losing her husband in a tragic mass shooting, a grief-stricken young mother embarks on a journey to find solace and closure, all while carrying the heavy burden of single-handedly raising their son.

Happily married one day and widowed the next, Cathy Walker feels her way through her first year as a suddenly single woman. Some days it would be easier to rebuild her life without well-intentioned advice and often hilarious help from her son, her brother, and their girlfriends. Thank heaven for Cathy's lifelong friend Michael, who keeps a loving eye on her.
