description: Sometimes the second time is the charm. . .
  
  After seeing enough of war, former Navy SEAL Lucas Chaffee is settling back into civilian life when he accepts a job refurbishing a farmhouse for an old friend, who plans to turn it into a culinary school.
  
  Celebrity TV chef Madeline Durand was badly shaken when her husband's illicit video went viral, so she jumps at the chance to reevaluate her life in Shelter Bay while helping her grandmother turn the family farm into a new business.  Little does she know that the man who broke her heart year ago is already on the job.
  
  Having Maddy leave Shelter Bay once, Lucas isn't about to let her get away this time.  But rekindling their romance won't be easy, as she still hasn't forgiven him for a fateful night ten years ago.  But Lucas is a man on a mission, and with the help of some Shelter Bay matchmakers, he plans to come up with a very special recipe of passion, patience, and perseverance to win her over. . .
