Karen, a reserved 50-something single nurse, is caring for her ageing mother, while quietly nursing her demons. She was 14 when she gave up her baby daughter for adoption 37 years ago and has never searched for her. She is drawn out of her shell when at the hospital she meets Paco. Her daughter, Elizabeth, has grown into a single-minded career woman working as a successful lawyer, and is having an affair with her boss Paul. She too has avoided contact with her biological mother. Meanwhile, Lucy and her husband Joseph are unable to have a baby and are desperate to adopt a child. Their lives are destined to cross in an unexpected and life changing way.
