Jimmy Moore arrives at his grandmother Louise's house for her 83rd birthday, bearing cake and good intentions, but his visit is brief-just a few hours carved out of his demanding corporate life in Washington. Despite Louise's gentle plea for him to visit more often, Jimmy returns to his career, letting months slip by, with only occasional texts and unanswered voicemails. When he finally receives the devastating news that Louise has died peacefully in her sleep, Jimmy is consumed by a grief so profound it threatens to destroy him. Drowning in regret for all the wasted time and unexpressed love, he encounters a mysterious fortune teller named Esmeralda, who offers him something impossible: a chance to travel back in time and relive those lost years with his grandmother. Taking the desperate leap through Esmeralda's temporal bridge, Jimmy finds himself five years in the past, standing in Louise's kitchen, with his grandmother alive and well. She believes his impossible story and welcomes him into her home, where he must navigate the complexities of living in a timeline that isn't originally his. When Esmeralda's daughter Ava crosses back to join him, the three form an unconventional family in the small town of AppleBerry, West Virginia. Together, they must learn what it truly means to be present for the people you love, to build a life that matters, and whether a second chance can heal the wounds of regret.
