The grieving husband and his dog are still trying to adjust to life without his wife. His friends keep trying to pry him from his "work is my life" existence by setting him up on blinds dates. Finally he actually shows up for one at an Irish-Italian restaurant where he finds himself more attracted to the waitress than his blind date. He finds an excuse to return to the restaurant in hopes of seeing the waitress again, theres just something attractive about her. Unknown to both the attraction they both feel for one another is Grace has the heart of Bobs dead wife. What can you say after that! Carroll OConnor says exactly the right thing to Bob after he finds out this ironic coincidence.
In Chicago, architect Bob Rueland is mourning the death of his wife, zoologist Dr. Elizabeth Rueland, who has long researched gorillas at the Lincoln Park Zoo and who was his one and only since they met when they were fifteen, from a tragic car accident, while Grace Briggs, who has suffered from heart problems since age fourteen, and her support network comprised primarily of her Irish-Italian extended family, rejoice the fact of she finally receiving a heart transplant, she receiving Elizabeths heart. Grace would have succumbed shortly to her heart problems without the transplant. One year later, Bob is still not ready to date, despite the efforts of who is and was his and Elizabeths best friend, veterinarian Dr. Charlie Johnson, in setting him up. A now healthy Grace, who up until now has been unable to have sex, is grateful for her new lease on life, but has not dated in being self-conscious about her surgical scar. After a few near encounters, Bob and Grace meet, not knowing about their connection through Elizabeths heart, and are immediately attracted to each other. They begin to date, and in Grace putting off telling him about her heart transplant in not wanting to scare him off by the scar, they fall in love. In the inevitability of one and/or the other finding out about their connection through Elizabeths heart, the question becomes whether their relationship can withstand the emotional baggage that comes along with it.
