After ten years, Viola Holyoake returns to the peaceful picturesque village of Fleckney Fields, the home of the large family of her ex-husband, Rhys.

Thanks to the patronage of Nana Mable, the matriarch of the Holyoake family, Viola will now take the position of a partner in the local surgery, as well as a lodger of Dr. Fenton, the most prominent bachelor of the village. Will the village of Fleckney Fields prove to be just as homely and serene as she fondly remembers it? Will Viola overcome her unwillingness to open her heart to the possibility of a new romance - or an old one, perhaps?
