Lily Green, a dedicated book editor from Manhattan, New York, has always played it safe. Her life is a whirlwind of deadlines, manuscript edits, and late-night work sessions, leaving little room for spontaneity - or romance. When a rare opportunity arises for a long-overdue vacation, Lily impulsively decides to travel to Spain, hoping the change of pace will help her reconnect with herself.
In the picturesque coastal town of Cadaqués, she meets Diego Sanchez, a renowned chef celebrated for his innovative takes on traditional Catalan cuisine. Diego, charismatic and grounded, has built a successful career but remains deeply tied to his roots in Cadaqués, where the rhythms of the Mediterranean Sea and the legacy of Salvador Dalí influence his work and worldview. Although they come from opposite worlds, their connection is immediate - and undeniable.
As Diego introduces Lily to the flavors, beauty, and hidden gems of Catalonia, she finds herself enchanted by more than just the landscape. Their journey takes them from bustling markets to intimate tapas bars, from seaside sunsets to candle-lit kitchens where Diego's passion for food is as captivating as his passion for life. But as their relationship deepens, they both begin to question their paths: Lily wonders if there's more to life than her career, while Diego faces a decision about leaving his beloved Cadaqués to chase greater culinary fame.
In a setting as timeless as Spain itself, Lily and Diego must confront their pasts, their futures, and what it truly means to find love - and a sense of home. Will Lily return to New York, or will she risk everything for the chance to build a new life by Diego's side? And can Diego let go of the only home he's ever known for a chance at lasting happiness with Lily?
