Single dad Luke means well. But ever since his son, Jace, had an accident, Luke's been trying to keep him safe from everything, driving Jace crazy. When a move to a dilapidated farm brings a chance at healing, Luke will take it. Even though it means fly-in-fly-out work and living with his interfering sister, Sal.
Felicity was once a fearless travel writer. Now she's home in small-town Clarence to start over, yet somehow she's become a nervous schoolteacher who avoids everyone, even her parents. Due to short-staffing, Felicity finds herself teaching science (despite not knowing what an amoeba is) as well as unexpectedly coaching tennis. (Ugh.)
Enter the Clarence Tennis Ladies. They love a project almost as much as a cuppa and cake. And when Jace mentions to Aunty Sal his dad needs to 'get a life', the club springs into action. Isn't there a new single teacher in town who might be just the distraction Luke needs?
But love, like a river, rarely runs without a ripple and Felicity's past is about to cause a deluge ...
