Once, Alf's bruised heart let love slip by. Now he's ready, but is he too late?

1954, Australia. Three years ago in a hospital in the Snowy Mountains, Alf stood by while the woman he loved re-united with her wayward husband. These days, Raine and Teddy are his best friends, their children call him Uncle Alf. Now Alf stands by as his days slip into loveless tedium.

June, a nurse, witnessed the anguish in Alf’s eyes. A spark flared between them. A tentative kiss was exchanged. But Alf’s heart wasn’t ready. Life moved on.

Pushed into searching for a new start, Alf returns to the mountains. He tells himself finding June isn’t the reason he’s there. Which is probably for the best, because it seems June has already found the man of her dreams.

Can the stars be made to align this time? Or will life move on again?
