Synopsis

Is the secret hidden inside Starfish Cottage enough to save an entire town?

Maddie Montgomery has finally found her slice of heaven - a charming cottage on the sugar-sand beach of Shell Cove, Maine.

There's only one problem, the flow of tourists to Shell Cove dried up years ago and now it's up to her to bring them back.

When a stash of bootlegged whiskey from the 1940s is found in the walls of Maddie's cottage, the discovery sparks an idea for an event that could bring the town back to life.

Too bad, the town grump, Constance Harbinger, doesn't like Maddie's plan. Constance is in charge of seeing that events adhere to the town bylaws, and she's found a way to throw up obstacles at every turn.

Constance isn't the only problem. In order to set up the event, Madde has to work with the annoying Dex Wheeler. Luckily, they both want the town to succeed so they'll have to figure out a way to work together.

Too bad, Dex's girlfriend, Lorelie, isn't so keen on Dex working with Maddie.

Dex, on the other hand, is happy to be doing something to save the town. He's spent his whole life in Shell Cove and never wants to leave. Not that he can admit that to Lorelei, she is under the impression that he's moving to Portland with her. And he was considering it until he started working with Maddie. Now that he's getting feelings for her, he's starting to wonder if moving in with Lorelei is such a great idea.

The entire town is depending on Maddie, their livelihoods and way of life are at stake. From Deena and Chuck who run Saltwater Sweets and have just discovered they can love again after leaving their spouses, to Maddie's cousin Jules and her new budding romance with Nick, to Gina who has her own hopes and dreams tied up in the town. Even the three quirky senior citizen "Welcome Wagon" ladies who Maddie has come to think of as honorary grandmothers have future dreams for Shell Cove.

But none of those dreams will matter, if Maddie can't bring the tourists back to Shell Cove.
