'Fran Reilly has hidden a secret sorrow for the past thirty years. But turning fifty and losing her mother forces her to re-evaluate her future. Returning to her home in Granite Springs, she's determined to make changes to her well-ordered life. However there are more changes in store than she could ever have imagined.

'When Owen Larsen applies for the position as Head of the new School of Music and Drama at the university in Granite Springs, his only concern is to leave the rat race of Sydney and find a more peaceful existence in the country.

'Owen is the exact opposite of everything in Fran's well-ordered world and reminds her of a past she has been at pains to forget. And Owen's country idyll isn't proving to be as peaceful as he imagined.

'Can these two opposites find common ground and is there a future for them in Granite Springs?'
