Finding a good man in a small town has never been so difficult!
Perpetually single Maggie Beaumont almost believes that her perfect man is out there waiting for her. With her infamous romantic pastโincluding a failed long-term relationship with her high school sweetheart and a dead-end crush on the new priest, Father Tim OโHalloranรโitโs becoming more and more difficult to picture anyone rolling into the small town of Gideonโs Cove, Maine, just to sweep Maggie off her feet. So when Father Tim offers to set Maggie up on a series of blind dates, she decides she has nothing to lose and lets him play matchmaker.
After a few bad dinners, including one date who doesnโt even show up, Maggie is ready to give up dating for good. But then romantic salvation appears in the form of sullen local fisherman Malone. Malone has always been dark and silentโnot exactly Maggieโs ideal future partner. But as Maggie learns more about this mysterious man, she realizes that thereโs a heart of gold underneath his salty exterior, and she wonders if Malone could be a good catch after all.
