Once a successful landscape designer, after her husband died Louise lost interest in life. All her ambitions—both personal and professional—and her faith in her own strength remained in the past…
But one day she receives an unexpected offer she can’t refuse—because it was exactly what she and her husband dreamed of: to create a public garden in a small town.
Arriving in the seaside Collaton, Louise realizes it won’t be easy to carry out her plan. The hardest part will be convincing the townspeople that this isn’t just another empty idea doomed not to come true.
As the garden on an empty lot starts to take real shape and Louise finds more and more local helpers, a taste for life awakens in her. It’s as if she finds herself again—only now she finally understands how she wants to live from here on. And with whom.
