One particularly horrid winter day in Chicago, Lindsay Moon, PhD, quits her laboratory job to return to Pacific Grove, California, the town where she grew up. Weary of academia, she's given up on love in general and men in particular. With Covid-19 looming, she's desperate to see her beloved grandmother again and feel the sun on her face. But it's a different world than she remembers, and as Covid shrinks her options, Lindsay agrees to step in to run her grandmother's café, The Owl & Moon. There, she connects with her childhood best friend, Sally DeThomas, a renowned writer, but the same old horse-crazy, defiant Sally, and she's still the most intriguing person Lindsay has even known. When new love comes her way, she is shocked and uncertain but realizes this could be something worth fighting for. After all, what is love but another chance to find happiness?
