After her daughter leaves home for university, Cassie finds the courage to run away from her abusive husband. Now in a strange city, alone, she wonders if she made the right choice. She's never been independent before. But a new day brings a new attitude, and Cassie decides to explore. Years ago she was a skilful painter, but being in a controlling marriage killed her creativity. Now, submerged in the surroundings of the garden city, she has the urge to paint once again.
Seeking out supplies, she finds a beachfront bookstore, where she meets flamboyant owner Louise and her son Nick. Two very different people, Cassie is drawn to them both. Louise, with her motherly charm, takes everyone under her wing. Nick is quiet and intelligent, but Cassie recognises the pain behind his blue eyes. Together they help Cassie find the strength she needs to make a new start. But always, running away has consequences, and Cassie will soon find out what they are.
