When widow Grace Winter makes the decision to sell the family property in Granite Springs and move to the small coastal town of Bellbird Bay, her children are horrified. Doing her best to ignore their protests, Grace settles into the small-town community and starts creating a new life for herself. However, the surprise arrival of her demanding daughter throws all that she's established into disarray.

Retired solicitor Ted Crawford has the ideal life. He surfs, takes care of local turtle hatching and is becoming well known locally as a landscape artist. But his calm existence is upended by the sudden appearance of his son whose professional life is in jeopardy.

Happy in their single lives, neither Grace nor Ted is looking for love, but when their paths keep crossing, it looks as if fate has other ideas. However, as their friendship evolves into something more, family issues threaten to derail any hope of a new relationship. Is a second chance at love going to be torn from their grasp?

A heart-warming story of families, friends, the importance of living for the present, and how a second chance at love can happen when you least expect it.
