Chance brings together Nina Thomas and elderly Laura Chadwick just at the time when Laura is in need of a friend to help with an interfering family member. Their growing bond is one thing that Nina will be sorry to leave behind as she relocates from Australia to England, but they promise to stay in touch. It will prove to be a significant friendship.

In England, Nina’s path soon crosses with handsome Sean Reynolds and she finds herself taking on a project larger than she had ever expected: Lavender Lane. Apparently, the appealing group of properties was a convalescent home for officers from the armed forces, although it has been closed for a few years. Reopening the site will be quite a challenge.

As Nina begins to put down roots, Lavender Lane has a number of surprises awaiting her, but will this corner of the Wiltshire countryside become the home she craves?
