Chelsea is giving up. After two years of waiting for Ace to make a move, she's done. It feels like forever and she's got to make her own way. It doesn't matter that her friends say he's interested in her. She doesn't see it and she's got more to worry about, like protecting her son, Hawk, working multiple jobs, and planning to open her own store.
More comfortable with repairing cars than relationships, Ace knows he's screwed up but he wants to make sure everything is perfect before he asks the woman of his dreams out. The house is almost finished being built, and all he thinks about is how much he can't wait to spend his days with Chelsea and Hawk. Confident she won't say no, he sticks to his plan without realizing she's moving on.
When Chelsea's ex, and Hawk's biological, abusive father shows back up, things get tense. Chelsea doesn't want to bother the guys at Phantom Inc, even though this might be too much to handle on her own. Just as stubborn as Ace is, she refuses to ask for their help, not realizing her ex is going to stop at nothing to get his way.
