Rosa lives with her grandma Lily. She’s just finished College and she can’t wait to leave Yorkshire and all the people in it … until she meets Niko.  They fall head over heels in love, and the future’s looking bright. But their love for each other is tested to the limit; Rosa leaves for London, Niko ends up in prison and Lily won’t stop baking cakes.

Everyone’s world is falling apart, but no-one’s talking about it.  How are they going to get their lives back on course?
