Cholmford Hall Mews offers more than an exclusive place to live. For Jessica, it is the perfect bolthole for recovering from a love affair; for Kate it represents a fresh start where her love for recently divorced Alec can flourish; for Amanda, whose marriage is one of straightforward convenience, it is a chance to get the most out of her situation; and for Josh, his new home offers a place of sanctuary to help him come to terms with his uncertain future. In their different ways, everyone at Cholmford Hall Mews is searching for something - love, peace of mind, a sense of belonging - but will they find more than they bargained for?
