Moving back to her hometown in country NSW, single, jobless and pregnant was never Poppy’s plan. With her best friend living hundreds of kilometres away and an ex who refuses to pick up the phone, she doesn’t know who to turn to for help. There’s definitely no point asking her midwife, James, because he’s the worst. Sure, he held her hand through the birth, but that’s only because it was his job. However, as Poppy and James keep crossing paths in the small country town, Poppy begins to realise she may have misjudged her midwife. And that complicates things. As Poppy stumbles from crisis to crisis in a town that feels unrecognisable, she learns that to build a future, sometimes you need to let go of the past. And often, the strongest relationships are those you forge when you’re at rock bottom.
