Gracie rescues old clothes and cast-off items from Applewell's charity shop, transforming them into cute and fresh outfits that she sells in her little shop. Turning a profit is difficult at the best of times, let alone when new arrival Lucas appears. After running away from the village in his teens, Lucas has finally returned to Applewell with a lot of fanfare and gossip. His job requires him to streamline the homeless charity, UnderCover, and his plans to do so risk putting Gracie out of business.

The pair of them exchange harsh words, but when Lucas' niece cuts up his sister's wedding dress, there's only one person he can think to turn to. Along with repairing the dress, will Gracie patch up her relationship with Lucas? Or is that a stitch too far?
