When Devon farmer's daughter Roxanne Hawkins attends a local summer concert, the 14-year-old is blindingly stage-struck. On the day of St Petroc's autumn fair, Roxanne runs away to seek fame and fortune in the bright lights of London.
There she stumbles across suave and sophisticated music-hall fixer Harry Bright, who persuades her to adopt the stage-name Annie Breeze. The popular double act Bright and Breeze is born. But, at the height of her career, disaster strikes, forcing her to make a heart-rending decision.
Returning to Devon, Roxanne carves out a new life for herself on her peaceful and beautiful daffodil farm. It's a life where love cannot penetrate. Or can it?
