To escape her sinister ex-husband Phillip, Meg flees to rural Devon, taking their young daughter Katie with her. She meets her neighbour, the reclusive farmer and artist Garth Winter, and although neither want to admit it, their magnetism to each other is hard to ignore. When Phillip finds Meg, he is determined to involve himself in his daughter's life – by taking drastic measures. As threat from Phillip increases, Meg realises she needs Garth's help to keep Katie – and herself – safe.

Meg faces a personal battle to keep her daughter while she struggles with her feelings for Garth. Set against the backdrop of country moors and busy London streets, this is a story of one woman's journey to start a new life, allowing herself to find bravery and love even in the darkest of circumstances.
