Description
Widowed florist Claire Ross has spent years tending her flower shop and guarding her grief. When she finally agrees to a first date in decades, the evening ends in disaster as a sudden squall wrecks the boat off Oakhaven Point and throws her into the freezing Atlantic.
She wakes in the circular living quarters of the lighthouse, wrapped in wool blankets and under the watchful eye of David Price, the reclusive keeper who pulled her from the surf. Brusque and solitary, David makes it clear he prefers the steady rhythm of the lamp and the isolation of the point to any company—especially a woman still wearing her late husband’s ring.
As the storm traps Claire at the lighthouse, the two begin a tentative dance of shared silence and small kindnesses. Claire’s florist hands find life in the neglected garden at the tower’s base, while David’s careful routines slowly open to her presence. Their connection deepens through quiet evenings, midnight radio calls, and the growing realization that each has been hiding from the world in their own way.
When the threat of automation endangers David’s home and a hurricane barrels toward the coast, Claire must decide whether she can leave the safety of her old life behind. Together they face the storm, rebuild what was lost, and discover that the lighthouse offers more than shelter—it offers a second chance at love.
