Six years on from a failed marriage and with her son Ben now enjoying University life, Cassie finds herself at an inevitable crossroads and struggling to work out what her purpose is. Counting Ben as her only successful achievement in her life so far doesn't give her a great track record; but it also means she has nothing to lose by putting everything into a move to Brighton. Actively encouraged by Ben and her closest friend Lucy she goes looking for answers. 'Sanctuary' (oh the irony!) is a beautiful seafront building where she finds her new home. The house feels special but it is the occupants of the flats within who will change her life.

Mel and Martha, Ray and Andy, Tom and Picasso the cat, all have their stories to tell. It is from them that Cassie will learn to let go of the past, believe in her self, trust in others and re-discover love in all its different forms. It's never too late for new beginnings.
