Top surgeon Fergus Reynard abandoned city life in Sydney for a GP's life at Cradle Lake, hoping to soothe his broken heart.
And indeed it is soothed - by the laughter, dedication and caring nature of local emergency doctor Ginny. Ginny knows she cannot enter a relationship with this wonderful man in the midst of her own struggles.
But Fergus will not let her run from their love of a lifetime - even though it means also giving his heart to the little niece in her care, and taking on a role he thought he could never face again - being a father.
