Overview

David is a handsome yet shy artist who works odd jobs to make ends meet. After his parents die, he moves to Cape Ann to be around other artists and to paint the picturesque scenery and stunning sunrises over the water. During the winter months he keeps to himself in the quiet town and in the summer he sits on the boardwalk with his easel, charcoals, paints, and brushes doing portraits for tourists. When David sees Jessica for the first time at the gallery he is sure such a privileged woman would never be interested in a meager artist.

Refusing to dip into her trust fund, Jessica Monroe lives in a modest house near the water's edge. She lives life on her own terms and works in a small locally owned gallery within walking distance of the beach. Jessica's exquisite beauty draws the attention of many men yet she is not swayed by the charms of the wealthy tourists who visit the cape. When she sees David's work for the first time, she is drawn to it. She has always loved the ocean and David's paintings capture the true splendor of the sea and they steal Jessica's heart.

When David visits the gallery to sell his pieces, he wears his baseball cap low, only looking Jessica's way when she is occupied with someone else. Jessica secretly glances in David's direction and often hides in the backroom or behind customers when he stops by.

One sunny Saturday morning, an emboldened Jessica decides to make a move. She finds him on the boardwalk adding the last few brushstrokes to a portrait for an elderly couple. David is intrigued by her forwardness and accepts her invitation to dinner.

When her vibrancy is tragically taken away, David does whatever he can to help her. Will it be enough? Will he get one more chance?

With love, miracles can happen.
