Summer 1937. In the rural Lancashire village of Ingleside, Nurse Lara Flynn works at the very heart of the tightly knit community. Amid laughter, love and loss, she helps her patients face life's most fragile and powerful moments.

When a vulnerable young mother goes into premature labour on the cobbled street, Lara must fight to perform a miracle. But with the violent father threatening everything, can the village rally round her to protect the mother and baby?

Meanwhile, the secret of a devastating diagnosis looms over Lara's blossoming relationship with village vet Leo. Caught between her duty and her feelings, Lara must decide where her loyalties truly lie.

When the people she cares for most are suffering, how far will she go to give them hope?

A wonderfully heart-warming, gripping and romantic tale of life in a rural community.
