Welcome to Silverdale, where second chances bloom—and love may be waiting just around the corner.
Grace Delaney has built a peaceful life in the charming coastal town of Silverdale, Washington. As the devoted owner of Timeless Treasures, a beloved antique shop nestled in the heart of Main Street, she finds joy in preserving the past and serving her close-knit community. But behind her warm smile lies the quiet ache of loss—Grace is still healing from the death of her beloved husband.
When Ethan Cole, a kindhearted and recently semi-retired businessman, arrives in town exploring the idea of a fresh start, he’s immediately drawn to Silverdale’s slower pace—and to Grace. With a shared love of antiques and an appreciation for the stories behind them, the two form a gentle bond that neither expected. But Ethan, too, carries grief in his heart.
Just as Grace begins to imagine the possibility of new beginnings, a shadow falls over her world: a Seattle developer is quietly making moves to purchase the historic building that houses Timeless Treasures, threatening to turn it into a sleek shopping center. Faced with uncertainty about her shop’s future—and haunted by the thought of letting go of the past—Grace turns to her loyal friend Isabelle and Isabelle’s savvy husband, James, for guidance.
Can Grace protect her beloved shop, preserve the heart of her community, and find the courage to open her heart to love again.
