Plot
Caroline, a chef in a swanky New York restaurant, discovers her Aunt Doreen has left her ownership of a cafe in Lemon Myrtle Cove, Australia. Leaving behind her job and ex-fiancé Nathaniel, Caroline finds that the Seagull Cafe is bustling and well-loved, and that she faces an offer to sell it. Initially wanting to sell, Caroline persuades the head chef Simon to help her fix up the place, only to soon realize that she really doesn't want to leave. Not only has she grown fond of the cafe and its customers, she has begun to fall in love with Simon. Eventually she must make a choice, particularly when Nathaniel starts pleading for them to get back together.[4]
