In an attempt to heal and revive his career, Rob decides to move to the English countryside and transform a rundown country pub into a gourmet restaurant dedicated to his late wife's memory.

Along the way, Rob and Kate develop feelings for each other, but they struggle to express them due to Rob's past and Kate's reservations about their professional relationship.
