Manchester, 1920. As a mannequin in an exclusive fashion salon, Kate Hunter lives for the moments she can step into a beautiful gown and leave her worries behind.
But when Kate is cheated out of her home and then suffers a terrible accident, she suddenly loses everything: her job, her independence and her future.
Miss Hawes, the well-to-do owner of Calico House, provides her with a chance beyond her wildest dreams. Could Kate use her eye for fashion to secure her future?
Meanwhile, ambitious young furniture dealer Finn Mercer is determined to expand his business - he and Kate could be a wonderful partnership. Maybe even more than that...
However, Miss Hawes's aggrieved godson will not just stand by and let them triumph.
Can Kate, along with friends old and new, fight for the happiness - and love - she dreams of?
