Summary
When Lily Bishop's husband walks out, desperation drives Lily to take a job as the resident hairdresser at Safe Harbor Village, an active living community. What's supposed to be nothing more than a way to support herself as she figures out her next move quickly turns into more as she gets to know the village residents, including the prickly owner, Rose Carrigan. Rose runs a tight ship, keeping watch over the village, ensuring all rules are followed, and staying at arm's length from the other residents. She lets her guard down for two people: her nephew Rawlins, who works in the family shrimping business, and his five-year-old daughter, Hazel. As the summer days stretch out with no word from Lily's husband, Worth, Lily tentatively allows her own longings and hopes to stretch in the sunlight, just as down the road, Rose works to overcome years of isolation and regret by opening herself up to possibility and maybe even love
