For twenty years, Betty Jones lived a lonely life as the wife of an oil executive who was always away from home. She found solace in the written word, writing mystery novels under the alias A.B. Caldwell. Betty's world implodes when her husband suddenly divorces her to free himself to marry his boss' (much younger) daughter.
Seeking a fresh start, she's traded Dallas for the sun-kissed shores of Southern California. Her new neighbor, the impossibly handsome action star Kal Renfroe, is everything her ex-husband wasn't - confident, passionate, attentive - and much younger than her 52 years.
Now, as Betty rewrites the script of her life, she must decide who she really is, what she really wants, and whether she's brave enough to take a second chance at love.
