For children's book author Imogen, life in the English countryside seems like the perfect fit for her and her husband. But when tragedy strikes, Imogen is left widowed and finds herself moving into Storybook Cottage alone. She grows determined to embrace a new start. The only thing Imogen can't seem to shake is her neighbor Gabriel, who she can't quite decide is friend or foe. That is until she realizes that Gabriel - lord of the local manor house - has the power to take her home and leave her completely broke. Yet, Imogen finds herself drawn to him nonetheless. And in her darkest hour, Gabriel may just be the bright spot to save Imogen in more ways than one.
