Description: Ranked as the ultimate retreat for socialites and celebrities Tamarisk Manor, a chic, 5-star hotel nestled in the wooded hills of County Wicklow, is owned and run by twins Serena and Jack Devlin. But behind the indulgent facade, life is in turmoil for the Devlins. Serena's commitment to the hotel is taking a toll on her once-dazzling marriage; she finds easier to run a multi-million business than be the kind of wife that her husband Paul expects, or mother that six-year-old Harriet deserves. While Jack struggles to recover from his wife's untimely death, he flees to their sister hotel in France where a chance encounter is about to turn his world upside down. As Serena works even harder to win the coveted accolade 'Haven of the Year' for Tamarisk Manor, Jack eventually returns from France. Life for the Devlins is about to change beyond their wildest expectations.
