Gloria Bachman, a retired bank executive, has eight weeks to flip a location on Comfort's High Street into a boutique chocolate shop. Defying expectations for "women of a certain age," Gloria rediscovers talents and a sharpening of skills. If only she could read people as well as she does a spreadsheet. Even with the renovation in good hands, the subsequent struggle to name the shop brings Gloria and her business partner into conflict with a shady citizen. While Gloria is capable of remaining in her retirement rut while opening a business, two competing social groups try to lure her into their networks, causing Gloria to wonder if she ever knew Comfort at all. A murder rocks the community and revives investigative instincts honed by years in the banking industry.

Fascinated by the women driving the energy of Comfort, he extends his stay to find out why the small town is the backdrop to their best tales. Tangling with his neighbor, Gloria, becomes his favorite pastime and the key to unlocking the mystery of his past-if he can convince her to trust him.
Chocolate and joy become the glue, bringing an unlikely cast together and which just might change Gloria's and Mason's course for the better.
