With her early years marked by turmoil and tragedy, GP Madeline Harrington prides herself on always being in control. Career-focused and goal orientated, she knows what she wants out of life. A job that she loves and marriage that includes the regulation 2.4 kids to her very sensible fiancé – even if they’re currently on a break. Dr Marcus Hunt, naturopath, is the complete opposite. He’s Mr fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants. Mr thrill-seeker. Mr footloose-and-fancy-free. Sworn off entanglements and perfectly happy to always play the uncle.

They might be totally incompatible on a philosophical level but when their worlds collide their attraction is as instantaneous as it is inexplicable.

An aggrieved Maddy makes it very clear to her new neighbour, that she doesn’t like his approach to medicine, doesn’t like his laid-back attitude – doesn’t like him! But as Marcus’s proves himself over and over, Madeline realises that she might have misjudged this very brilliant, very caring doctor and maybe what she needs is a little fun. Cutting the strings to her old life is liberating but when Marcus’s ex-wife turns up with a shocking revelation, Maddy is rocked to her core.
