Welcome to Port Berry, where healing and second chances are just around the corner.
When her husband’s death uncovers a shocking secret, Demi Carter’s world falls apart. Grieving and betrayed, she escapes to the picturesque coastal town of Port Berry, hoping for peace and a fresh start.
Robson McCoy has built a quiet life for himself in Port Berry, running his pub and supporting others through his bereavement group. But behind his easy charm and warm smile he’s still healing from the loss of his wife three years ago.
When Demi joins Robson’s support group, she stirs feelings in him he thought were long buried. Their paths continue to cross in the tight-knit community, and when Demi takes a job at Robson’s pub, their bond grows from a tentative friendship to something deeper.
Neither is looking for love, but sometimes the heart has other plans. Demi and Robson must decide if they’re ready to open their hearts again — and discover that love can be found even after loss.
