Now a widow and an empty nester, Joan Sample makes big strides, including renting out a room to a local college student. Despite taking classes to become a nurse practitioner, Maggie Herbert begins to envision a new future when she finds a room for rent with a landlady who seems nice enough. Only after she moves in does she realize that her least favourite person happens to be Joan's son - and she's just taken his childhood room. As they confront the trials of life, new love, and family, the two women offer each other the support they had been missing. But will the risks they take be worth it in the end?
