Louisa Walsh loses her wealthy boyfriend and faces eviction from the Colorado mountain house she loves. She approaches her reclusive landlord Henry Rhodes with an unusual proposal. Let her stay rent-free and she will transform the property into a bed-and-breakfast. Henry agrees, surprising them both. Louisa discovers Henry is a handsome veterinarian in his thirties who carries deep sadness. She markets their venture as the Comeback Inn, a refuge for people nursing broken hearts. Henry objects to this focus on romantic recovery. Guests arrive seeking healing from their own romantic disasters. Louisa and Henry circle around their growing attraction while hiding secrets that could destroy their partnership. The inn becomes a place where wounded hearts might mend, but Louisa and Henry must decide whether love this close to home represents their greatest risk or their best chance at happiness.
