On the anniversary of his beloved wifes death, Dr. Michael Everett receives a letter Hannah had written him. In it she reminds him of her love and makes one final request. An impossible request I want you to marry again. She tells him he shouldnt spend the years he has left grieving her. And to that end shes chosen three women she asks him to consider. First on Hannahs list is her cousin, Winter Adams, a trained chef who owns a caf on Seattles Blossom Street. The second is Leanne Lancaster, Hannahs oncology nurse. Michael knows them both. But the third name is one hes not familiar with Macy Roth. Each of these three women has her own heartache, her own private grief. More than a year earlier, Winter broke off her relationship with another chef. Leanne is divorced from a man who defrauded the hospital for which she works. And Macy lacks family of her own, the family she craves, but shes a rescuer of strays, human and animal. Macy is energetic, artistic, eccentric and couldnt be more different from Michael. During the months that follow, he spends time with Winter, Leanne and Macy, learning more about each of themand about himself. Learning what Hannah already knew. Hes a man who needs the completeness only love can offer. And Hannahs list leads him to the woman who can help him find it.
