Filled with colorful family members, southern, coastal vibes, and plenty of Generation-X pop culture, Jessie\'s story is one of ordinary people trying to overcome extraordinary circumstances with grace, humor, and always, love..
Maybe, somehow, Jessie will find a way to be freed from guilt and doubt and embrace a brand-new chapter in her life.
Maybe age fifty-something is not too old for a second-chance at romance.
Maybe heartbreak really can be sincere and shared all at once.
Maybe no one should be surprised when the two affectionate old friends begin to see each other in a new light, begin to fall in love.
Soon - too soon? - Jessie and her newly widowed co-worker, Paul Jameson, begin to navigate grief together.
