Happiness can be found in the most unexpected places...
Roxanne Pellegrino's world collapses when her husband dies unexpectedly, and overwhelmed by her all-consuming grief, she runs away for a new start on Peaks Island.
But her new life of solitude is interrupted when she meets Lloyd - a stray black Labrador with an equally unhappy past. As both slowly begin to heal, a remarkable friendship blossoms, and Roxanne will soon discover she's not so alone after all...
