Tiny Marsh Isles becomes a sanctuary for two people trying to start over, but is it enough to overcome the turmoil in their lives. Former SEAL Tucker Ladnier returns to Marsh Isles after a wound in Afghanistan ends his military career. He chooses to live on a boat in Paradise Marina as he learns to cope with civilian life, physical wounds, and PTSD. When he takes a near-death kitten to a local veterinarian, Tucker meets Amanda Murphy. Tucker feels an immediate connection to Amanda, but until he gets his life under control he has nothing to offer her. Dr. Amanda Murphy leaves a fiancé and a lucrative practice in San Francisco and returns to the Gulf Coast to regain her independence and self-esteem. Opening her own small clinic is just what she needs to rebuild her life. Falling in love with Tucker Ladnier is not in her plans, especially when he distances himself from her. Can Amanda and Tucker work through their problems to find their paradise in Marsh Isles?
