After the accident that killed Larkin May's husband Pat, she retreated to a life that was safe, but without color. She ate the same things, worked in the same place, and took up no new interests. Now, three years later, a dinner with her next-door neighbor and her childhood best friend provides motivation to make changes to her comfortable, but bland, life. With gentle persuasion from her old Irish neighbor, Larkin agrees to spend a month in Ireland, working at his daughter's B&B on the Shannon River. In the lovely setting of Ireland in summer, Larkin begins to unwind from the tension and loss she has felt for so long. She learns about the B&B business, makes new friends, and joins a competitive rowing team. Being part of the rowing community opens even more opportunities for growth and excitement, and Larkin begins to believe that she can, after all this time, contemplate being happy without Pat. What Larkin has yet to learn is that recovery from one tragedy in no way prevents another. When Larkin is again faced with loss, her choice on how to proceed may make the difference between living a colorless life of mediocrity or being able to step over her fear to live her heart's desire.
