Oliver Thomasson has it all together.
He grew up in the same small Alaskan fishing town by the ocean where he still lives, and he has become a fisherman just like his father and grandfather before him. He has no plans to fall in love, but plans-as we all know-tend to change.
Lisa Montgomery is new in town.
She has never lived in Alaska before but quickly settles into this small, welcoming town. She has no plans to fall in love either. In fact, it's the last thing on her mind as she starts her new job at the local tavern.
Until she meets Oliver, and everything changes. Lisa tries to fight it since this is definitely not a complication she needs in her life.
Despite her reluctance, Oliver doesn't give up, and soon, she finds herself falling for this stoic fisherman with a heart of gold.
But Lisa doesn't talk about her past, and soon, it catches up to her, bringing a fierce storm to the quaint town and especially into Oliver's life.
The question is if they can weather it together, or will they fall apart?
Is their newfound love enough to face the demons of Lisa's past?
