world of possibilities opens up for disillusioned college professor Joy
Harkness when she sets out on a journey that’s going to show her the importance
of friendship, love, and what makes a house a home.</span></b><span

style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#333333'>Coming-of-age
can happen at any age. Joy Harkness had built a university career and a safe
life in New York, protected and insulated from the intrusions and involvements
of other people. When offered a position at Amherst College, she impulsively
leaves the city, and along with generations of material belongings, she packs
her equally heavy emotional baggage.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

tumbledown Victorian house proves an unlikely choice for a woman whose family
heirlooms have been boxed away for years. Nevertheless, this white elephant
becomes the home that changes Joy forever. As the restoration begins to take
shape, so does her outlook on life, and the choices she makes over paint chips,
wallpaper samples, and floorboards are reflected in her connection to the
co-workers who become friends and friendships that deepen. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

brilliant, quirky, town fixture of a handyman guides the renovation of the
house and sparks Joy’s interest to encourage his personal and professional
growth. Amid the half-wanted attention of the campus’s single, middle-aged men,
known as “the Coyotes,”and the legitimate dramas of her close-knit community,
Joy learns that the key to the affection of family and friends is being worthy
of it, and most important, that second chances are waiting to be discovered
within us all.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
