They have decided to take over her husband's family inn, leaving behind their old life and troubles in America.

And as her husband, Matthew, begins to tackle the renovations, it's clear that Matthew's mother, Gwen, has very firm ideas about what can and cannot be changed. And although Ellie tries, she finds it's not easy to form a closeness with her prickly mother-in-law, especially now they're living under the same roof.
