    • Synopsis
    • When Margie loses the one person that her entire life seemed to be centered around, this tragedy comes with a wake up call. She takes a hard look at this life that has become something so unfamiliar that she bravely leaves everything behind and ventures into a new world, a new romance, a new life. Her journey of self-discovery turns her unfamiliar life into something she could’ve never imagined. Estranged from her only sister, alone in a strange new place, Margie is surprised by the peace and love she finds in a remote tropical island with unlikely friends and the greatest love of her life. When the two sisters eventually reunite after years apart, a life that was once so unfamiliar to Margie, is a life that is full of possibilities. Some lives are found when everything else is lost.
