A heartwarming and moving story about love, family and courage.
Scotland, 1948.
Young Bridie Maxwell has spent all her life on her family farm. Following World War Two, life is increasingly tough for the community. Many families have been bereaved, and food and labour are scarce.
For Bridie, the work is hard but love is plenty. She can’t imagine wanting anything more . . . That is until she meets her big brother Conan’s best friend, the dashing Nick.
Love blooms, but it’s not long before life tests them. Following an unimaginable loss, can their marriage survive?
Meanwhile, Bridie’s school friend Fiona Sinclair returns from the city to look after her dying mother. She’s comforted by a sea of familiar faces who welcome her home, but there’s one person in particular who catches her eye — Fiona’s childhood rival, Conan Maxwell.
Conan has grown into a particularly formidable and ruggedly handsome man and Fiona finds comfort in his arms. But reeling from her mother’s death, can Fiona open her heart once more and allow him in?”
